Dinghy Sailing
Dinghy Sailing is a very skilled sport that requires mastery of the following five essential Areas:
- Sails are necessary for the forward movement of the boat.
- Underwater Hydrofoils create a lift in the water, making it cut through the water.
- Trim: the angle the ship has in the water.
- Balance of the Boat: adjusted by moving body weight around.
- Water currents, tides, weather patterns, wave conditions, and wind speeds influence routes.
Common Injuries
Injuries from rigging are common, as are high-speed impact injuries.
Be vigilant in the water to avoid obstacles such as rocks, other vessels and swimmers.
Wear sunscreen with a high SPF and keep hydrated to avoid sunburn and sunstroke. Long periods out on the water may keep you cool and make you mistakenly think you are not being affected by the sunlight.
Always wear a life vest to keep you afloat in the water, even if you suffer a severe injury or lose consciousness.
As you work with a boat, the movement of which is affected by wind, weather and wave conditions, several potential injuries and conditions may be sustained.
Pre-Existing Medical Conditions
If you have been Dinghy Sailing before and may have had an injury or accident whilst participating in Dinghy Sailing, you must declare this when purchasing a policy.
We have several providers who can offer travel insurance, including Dinghy Sailing, if you have a pre-existing medical condition.
