Learn to Sail Now!
- Our opening day is May 1st, and we're almost there! Have you ever thought of learning how to sail? Well consider signing up for one of our adult sailing classes. We use 20-24 foot sailboats for our adult keelboat classes, which are larger and more stable than smaller sailing dinghies. We keep our ratios low, so you get plenty of hands-on time. Adult keelboat classes are running almost every weekend the whole season, so sign up early and have the rest of the seaon to work on your skills. Many of the concepts take minutes to learn, but a lifetime to master! See the schedule here.
