S1D Regatta Private Coaching
Thanks for your interest in S1D Coaching. Sail1Design has a standard rate sheet that can be mailed out upon request, but S1D also recognizes that each event is unique and we can give a comprehensive, individual quote upon request. S1D can customize pricing for each client and each opportunity to make the most sense for us and for you.
Private coaching is designed specifically to the needs of your team, yourself, or your boat. This includes pre-regatta practicing, video, chalk talk, weather predictions and logistics, on-the-water drills, and also on-site regatta coaching, towing, and support.
S1D Regatta Support & Coaching
You invest a lot in regattas; boat prep, sails, travel, and more. Take the next step, and help you or your team achieve the next level with a dedicated support team and coach.
Sail1Design is very happy to offer private regatta support and on-site event coaching. By signing up with us, you get a dedicated and talented coach, on site, equipped with a RIB coach boat.

Testimonials
“I was impressed with the detail and insight reflected in the post-regatta written report. The report alone was worth the fee. It reinforced lessons from the regatta, and included constructive next steps for improvement.”
