Campers learn and review the essentials of sailing at their experience level on the beautiful San Francisco Bay!
This course is designed to teach the basics of sailing, including rigging, tacking, gybing, capsizing, docking, knots and safety issues (https://www.nomadsailing.co.uk/learning-zone/glossary.html#.Y3PmfXbMJhE). With a low instructor to camper ratio every student can find an ideal learning environment either in the classroom or on our sailboats. Campers will spend 3-4 hours of each day sailing & rigging aboard our Zest sailboats, while the rest of the day will be a mix of classroom learning and land-based activities.
In 2022 we introduced the two-week Novice camp and it was wonderful! The tides are not conducive for that model again in 2023. This Full Day 1 week camp will pack just as much sailing time into five days as our previous two-week session.
No previous sailing experience is required, however a comfort with wind and water is strongly encouraged.
The Register button will take you to our CampDoc registration portal, where you can view camp availability and options, add extended care and additional weeks or sign up multiple campers for multiple weeks.
