Steering the Course Festival 2022 - Women's Keelboating Day at Queen Mary Sailing Club supported by RS Sailing
QMSC is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year and is taking part in the Steering the Course 2022,
run by World Sailing. The festival takes place across the globe each year and is aiming to encourage
and promote women in sailing.
For its headline act QMSC has arranged a Women's Keelboating Day
on Saturday 21st May.
The day is aimed at all ability levels from complete novice to experienced sailor and is hoping to
gather as many women as possible on the water, developing sailing skills in a friendly environment.
With over 20 women currently signed up and just six spaces remaining, the day has already proven to
be a big attraction for women around London and the South East of the UK.
It is being run in RS21
Keelboats and the day is being supported by RS Sailing. At a cost of just £50, a fantastic opportunity
to get out on the water with like-minded people, benefit from sailing coaching and have fun.
