Welcome to SailCoach, the world’s first and leading coaching and support organisation for sailors of all backgrounds. Since 1995, we’ve been working with sailors from across the globe, from places like the Seychelles to Uruguay, and from Iceland to the Cook Islands. Our mission is to provide a comprehensive solution for sailors, offering coaching, charter boats, accommodation, campaign support, and mentoring from our two SailBase’s in Malta and Valencia, Spain.

Our sailors participate with our support in various regattas, with a special focus on the ILCA and Optimist classes. We take pride in our track record of helping newcomers in sailing progress to regional and national competitions. We have had the privilege of nurturing talented athletes who have gone on to win medals at four Olympic Games.

At SailCoach, we recognise that our sailors are more than just athletes, they are individuals with unique goals and aspirations. That’s why we offer personalised coaching and support that goes beyond the technical aspects. Our approach focuses on developing life skills, ensuring that our sailors leave our programs with a sense of experience rather than just completing a sailing clinic.

For many of our sailors, SailCoach has been the key to turning their dreams into reality. Without our support, they might not have reached their full potential. We are dedicated to helping emerging nations expand their sailing programs and achieve success on the global stage. Join us today and become a part of the SailCoach family as we continue to make waves in the world of sailing!

Our mission is about
more than silverware.

At SailCoach, we are more than just about sailing skills. We focus on developing the whole athlete and helping them reach their personal best, both on and off the water. Our approach is simple, we see sailing as more than just a sport, it's a way of life. Through our coaching and guidance, we teach discipline, teamwork, and perseverance traits that go beyond sailing and into everyday life. We're here to help our athletes build confidence, resilience, and a strong work ethic that will benefit them in any endeavour. We know that every sailor is unique, so our coaching is personalised to fit each individual's needs. Our mission is to unlock your full potential while nurturing a lifelong passion for sailing. Join us at SailCoach and discover the athlete within you.

SailCoach was the brainwave of Trevor Millar in 1995. In discussing the idea with his former athlete James O'Callaghan the idea was further developed through the Trinity Business School, Dublin. The company was incorporated in 1996 with the aim of creating a coaching organisation that would help sailors from all parts of the globe to pursue their sailing goals and dreams and predominantly now our sailors are from the emerging sailing nations. However, our mission is about more than just silverware.
