Beginner Sailing (ages 7 –11)

The Beginner Sailing program uses our fleet of Vanguard prams and 420’s and combines a fun on-water and on-land program in a safe, group oriented setting. Children will work toward the CYA Pram certification or Learn to Sail – White Sail. Class size will be limited. All students must have the equivalent of Red Cross Swim or RLSS Swimmer Level 4.

Beginner sailing classes are Tuesday and Thursday mornings from:

We recommend beginner sailors enrol for a minimum 2-week period.

   

Regular Sailing (ages 10 and up)


The Regular Sailing program is designed for all sailors aged 10-16 years old, and uses our fleet of Prams, 420’s, Laser II’s and Albacores. The program includes on-water sailing skills and on-land instruction on skills such as knots and terminology.  Sailors may work toward CYA White Sail and Bronze Sail Certification Levels. The program also introduces racing in a fun, team-oriented environment.
