For Boys and Girls in Grades 2 through 8

After School Sailing

We invite new and returning students 7 to 12 years old to join us on the water for after school sailing.

Sailors of all levels will be able to advance their sailing skills and gain confidence on the water as they focus on team work, rigging the boat, sailing upwind, boat handling and sail trim.  Each sailor must bring a well fitting life jacket, warm layered clothing, a change of clothes (just in case!), a towel, hat and a snack each day.

Dinghy sailing requires agility, skill, teamwork, and concentration and through games, races and exercises we will enhance specific skills including individual and team working skills.
