Come Learn the Basics of sailing with no pressure or tests, just fun.
Have you ever wanted to learn the basics of sailing? Now is your chance. We will have scheduled group classes in the afternoon and early evening with the beginner in mind. You will have an opportunity to take the helm, work the lines, maneuver the boat in and out of the slip, and gain an understanding of what is happening.
Topics covered will be: safety on board, preparation, rules of the road, rigging, leaving the dock, raising sails, heading up, bearing off, tacking, gybing, man-over-board, returning to the dock, furling, and more.
We will be using our fleet of Cape Dory Typhoons. They are known as “America’s Little Yacht”.
