Our Program objective is teaching kids and teens how to sail. Initiating them
to learn SAILING both as a lifestyle as well as (those that show interest)
a competitive sport.
Two programs have been designed ; SAIL4FUN and Performance Program.
Students will learn basic boating safety, terminology, how to rig the boat,
knot tying and line handling, identification of wind direction, points of sail
terminology and be able to steer the boat on a straight course and through
tacks and gibes.
For safety, the first class should include both a swim and capsize test so
that the lead instructor can assess proper fit of life jacket, comfort in the water,
and reduce fear of capsizing.
A U.S. Sailing Curriculum is offered in four 3 hour lessons.
