Adult Sailing Instruction
Available courses
6.) Advanced Adult
New for 2023‚ Advance Adult Sailing instruction will span many weeks and include sailing experience aboard a variety of boats and platforms. The class will meet every Sunday afternoon in 6 sessions over a 6 or 7 week period. Each class will introduce new sailing skills and challenge additional study and practice in between sessions. Depending on conditions and progress made the prior week‚ students may sail aboard Ensigns‚ OD Ensigns (One-Design Ensigns carrying a hank on jib‚ genoa and spinnaker gear)‚ Solings or J-24s and in a variety of roles‚ including helmsperson‚ trimmer‚ pit or bow person.
In this way‚ students can expect to build a deep well of safety‚ seamanship‚ sail handling and spinnaker skills‚ which‚ when demonstrated in both in-class and written evaluations‚ MAY result in a heavy wind rating including endorsements to sail a variety of Sailing Center boats during Open Sail.
Prerequisites: Medium Air Rating and an active sailing calendar are required to take this course. More experienced students should expect to guide less experienced classmates in on-water and homework sailing.
