T15 Kit Hire costs 2025
General
Boards/Sails
The club has a number of sails and boards that can be hired for use for T15 activities. However, most of this is on the smaller side as it is directed at those learning to sail. We encourage all to buy their own stuff when going to bigger sails (>5.8m) and/or after hiring kit for more than 2 years.
Wetsuits
The club also has a range of wetsuits that can be borrowed. Again though we do encourage people to purchase their own, if nothing else think of how many other people may have worn the wetsuit before! If you do borrow club wetsuits please enusre they are rinsed properly and hung up to dry after use.
Boots
There is a smaller selection of wetsuit boots available to borrow just below the bouyancy aids. We strongly recommend that some form of footwear is worn, at least on the foreshore (must be worn for foiling).
Bouyancy aids
A range of bouyancy aids is to be found immediately on the left of the windsurfing shed. Buying your own ensures that there is one that fits you and isn't already wet!
BAs must be worn by youth members, and adult members should wear one when on the safety boats or assisting on the shore line. If you see someone without one feel free to call out, they may have forgotten!
