Lessons are given on the water from 3:00 to 6:00 pm for three days each week.

We teach on J22 sailboats. The J22 is a stable yet responsive boat that doesn’t tip over.
While the boat is stable you can still get splashed so dress accordingly.
We provide life jackets.
The focus of the lessons is on getting students comfortable with driving the boat, turning the boat in tacks and jibs, approaching and mooring on a buoy, maneuvering the boat in traffic and doing man overboard drills.
