What is a Sail Trim Work Shop

This is a workshop designed with everyone in mind. It won't matter if you’re a seasoned passagemaker or you’ve just dropped anchor in Opua for the first time, Robbs’ relaxed, hands-on style promises to make sail trim feel less like science and more like second nature.

Robbs will share his practical tips to help cruisers fine-tune performance and balance on the water. He'll chat all things storm sail and more! No questions are off limits! 

Taking place Novemeber 19th - at the 36° Brokers, Opua office, next to the Opua General store!

 

Who is Robbs Hielkema? 

Robbs is not just a broker here at 36° Brokers; he’s a true enthusiast of life on the water. When he’s not helping the team to list and sell and list yachts, you’ll likely find him coaching young sailors, kitesurfing, or wing foiling. His passion for the sea and his commitment to helping others discover their dream boats make him a trusted and respected figure in the boating community. 
Chances are, you’ve met Robbs at Musket Cove or shared an anchorage as part of the Island Cruising family. 

 

If you’re in town this November, swing by the presentation, grab a drink at the Opua Cruising Club, and join the conversation. It’s a great way to meet fellow sailors, sharpen your skills and chat with the team from 36° Brokers about what’s happening on the local boating scene from buying and selling to the best spots to drop anchor and get inspired for the summer season ahead

See you in Opua - where the sails are trimmed and the stories are plenty.
