Basic Sailing Camp

I'm Interested

About

This one-week entry level sailing class will provide in depth sailing lessons and give kids a chance to get their "sea legs". The campers start off learning the parts of the sailboat and by week's end they'll understand wind direction as it relates to propelling and more importantly, controlling their sailboat. Games and drills on the water will help to teach these basic skills. Completion of Basic Sailing does not guarantee advancement.
