Olympic Kieler Woche (Coaching Tour)
June 20 - June 28

Silver/Gold Level Coaching Tour
Not many sailing venues can say they first held their regatta in 1882, however, Kieler Woche can and this year’s regatta will celebrate another legendary sailing week. The regatta takes place at the venue of the 1972 Olympic Regatta, and we are sure most of you will have not been born then.
By signing up with us, you get a dedicated, skilled coach who in most cases has campaigned at Olympic level. These “Coaching Tours” are offed in small coaching support groups with a target group size of six sailors. We aim to provide a complete package including airport transfers, accommodation, boat charter and our outstanding coaching. All you have to do is enter the regatta and book your flights, what could be more simple.
A typical day would start with a morning briefing, looking over the weather forecasting and communicate anything important that came from the coaches meeting and specific points to note for the days racing. The SailCoach coaches will offer you coaching support afloat, such as towing if necessary to get to the starting line. Carry any bags with food and spare parts, along with a jacket to keep warm between races. The day finishes with a post-race debrief and discussion on the day’s events. In some cases, our coaches will make briefings individually going around the boat park before or after racing, depending on the circumstances. We advise our sailors to settle any differences on the water or in the boat park when possible. However, we will be there to support you during protests if all else fails.
Numbers will be limited on this coaching tour, so you are advised to book early.
