Sunday, 12 February, 2012 - Spring Sailing

Sundays: 10:00 am - 2:00 pm

Beginner:

This introductory course teaches students the basic sailing skills and knowledge needed for all other courses. Sailed entirely inside the King Harbor Marina, the course offers a safe, low-pressure environment for young boys and girls to gain confidence and comfort, while learning the skills necessary for a life of sailing. Topics include, points-of-sail, right of way rules, knots, boat parts, and sail trim. Students should be 8 years or older. Contact us for possible exceptions. Students may take a short 'swim test' on day 1 of the course.

Intermediate/Advanced:

This course will build on the skills learned in the beginner course. Emphasizing on-the-water skills, such as boat-handling, form in the boat and upwind sailing, this course will keep our sailors on the water for a vast majority of class. Later in the course, sailors will get their first introduction into racing. All students should have completed the beginner course.
