PGM Training
Antrim Boat Club has been a Recognised Training Centre (RTC) by the Royal Yachting Association (RYA) for the last 15 years. In line with the RYA we have trained many club members and visitors to our Club, enabling them to increase their sailing and power-boat skills.

Antrim Boat Club has a long history of Dinghy Sailing dating back to the inception of the Club in 1967. In the seventies and eighties, Antrim was the premier boat club for dinghy sailing during the winter – at times there were over 60 Scorpions from around the country on the water during the winter months. The Club has hosted championships for Scorpions, Laser 2s & GP14s.
Along with that, we have previously arranged Dinghy Sailing training – at present the Club is looking at options to further develop this.
