Twenty boats and eight high-speed catamarans lined the beach in front of the building, in Sea Place, Goring, and around 80 people were taken out to sea for taster lessons, with the youngest being just four.

Matt Frost, the club’s communications officer, said: “I can’t think of a bigger sailing event that involves so many local people. It’s an event for the local community and not just for sailors.”
