Intensive ILCA Clinics almost full
Join Aaron and Maartje in May to seriously upgrade your dinghy skills

Our Intensive ILCA Clinics at the start of the season have proved extremely popular, and this year we have four of them in store! We start, for the first time, with a ladies-only training, taught by experienced Dutch racer and Wildwind second-in-command Maartje van Dam. This clinic will be held in the week starting on May 3rd. This is followed by three more clinics lead by Wildwind manager Aaron Smith, who also has a considerable racing pedigree. If you're interested, we still have a few places left for all weeks, May 10th, May 17th and May 31st.

Each ILCA Clinic is limited to no more than 10 sailors per week, to ensure everyone receives ample personal attention. There are only a few places left for each of the clinics, so if you're interested, contact us soon!

New season, new boats!
The 2025 upgrades to the Wildwind fleet in Vassiliki

As always, we aim to constantly upgrade and expand our equipment and this year is no exception. Not only are we replacing 7 ILCAs with brand models, but we'll also offer two brand new RS Aeros plus a pristine RS200 to accompany the RS Feva, RS 500’s and 49er that we purchased just last year. We have also picked up a small fleet of training Optimists to add to our kid's fleet of Zests.

What’s more, we are investing in a brand new inshore rescue boat that will permit even more dedicated instruction for our beginners, kids and intermediates while also providing even more safety cover for all those enjoying their time on the water.
