• Over the counter: cash, cheque, American Express, Maestro or credit card.
• By post: cheque*, American Express, Maestro or credit card (NOT CASH please).

Condition of booking
Cancellation of courses: Port Edgar reserves the right to cancel any course if the bookings do not reach the required minimum number. We will try to give as much warning as possible, and will also try to offer alternative dates. If this is not possible a full refund will be given.

Refunds: If for any reason you are unable to attend a course on the dates booked, we will try and off er alternative dates provided at least 7 days notice is given. Refunds will only be given if we can fill the vacancy, so applicants are advised to arrange cancellation insurance. A cancellation fee of £15 will apply to all refunds.

Clothing

In addition to buoyancy aids, students on courses are provided with waterproofs, or wetsuits when appropriate at no extra cost. All customers should bring a change of warm clothing, towel and soft-soled footwear (gym shoes or soft sailing wellies).

Applications are welcome from any organisation or group wishing to make special arrangement for instruction or hire. Minimum group size is usually three persons. Contact the Sailing School Principal to discuss your requirements.

Private instruction

For customers unable to join a scheduled course, or who have their own boat, we can offer a private instruction service. This can be at any level of competence, or for any specialist skills, and could include the correct setting up and rigging of any boat. Advance booking of at least 48 hours is required. We regret that this service is sometimes not available at weekends.

Gift Vouchers can be purchased at any time of the year and could cover all or part of a course fee or hire charge. They are valid for one year from date of purchase and make a superb gift for a watersports enthusiast, and are ideal Birthday or Christmas presents.
