Experience Days

As you sail out from Brighton Marina with a qualified RYA Instructor at the helm you can choose to sit back and relax or get hands on. You will get to helm and crew the modern performance sailing boats with the instructor guiding you through manoeuvres and during the quieter moments you can sit back and enjoy a glass of bubbly. This voucher is valid until 31st October 2013. It's essential that you book and take you experience before this date as this voucher may not be extended beyond the expiration date. Courses run on selected weekdays and weekends from April 2013 until 31st October 2013. This voucher cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer and may not be exchanged for another voucher. The trip out of Brighton Marina is short so you will be out on the sea hoisting the sails in no time. With the prevailing winds you normally have an upwind sail, making the cruise exciting with the boat heeling over, feeling the power of the wind, as you make your way past Brighton and the famous Piers. With the sun (hopefully) setting on the horizon it's time to turn around with the wind behind you as the pace chills out and it's time to crack open a bottle of bubbly for a relaxing sail back into the harbour. Location: Brighton, Sussex. Please allow approximately 2 hours for the whole experience (time spent on the yacht is two hours) Courses run on selected weekdays and weekends from April 2013 until 31st October 2013.We recommend you book at least 4 weeks in advance to ensure that dates are available before the expiry date listed on the voucher. Please note: The experience can be very popular during the summer months and we recommend early booking to avoid disappointment.

The sideways style of Drifting is like no other form of modern motorsport and requires precise speed and control but the excitement of perfecting the technique is exhilarating. This driving skill has taken the UK by storm over the last few years, interest fuelled by the recent block buster movie. The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift and is also heavily featured in both the Top Gear and 5th Gear TV programmes, no supercar road test is complete without a tyre burning drift session on the test track, so why not learn how to do it too? On arrival at the venue you will be asked to sign in and your experience begins with a briefing. The briefing will be on safety and drifting techniques before your instructor will be on hand to familiarise you with the car. Throughout your driving session you will experience the exhilaration and satisfaction of being able to handle the car in a completely different style, with the help of instructor demonstrations throughout the session. By the end of your experience you will have mastered some of the correct techniques required to perform basic drifting moves. Your experience will conclude with a certificate of your experience. The activity will run on selected weekend dates throughout the year - Allow up to 1 hours for your visit with 20 minutes actual driving time - The experience content, equipment used and restrictions may vary. Please check with the venue when booking. Minimum age: 18. Location: Corby, Northamptonshire.
