*** LEARN TO SAIL ***

Every Spring, we offer an "Introduction to Sailing" class. The course consists of 2 or 3 consecutive Saturday morning classroom lessons. Upon completion, participants practice hands-on rigging of a small sailboat and experience a one hour on-the-water demonstration.  Classes are targeted to beginners interested in the sport of small sailboat sailing. Class size is limited to the first 12 registrations. The $75 fee covers an annual one year membership in our club.

CLASS REGISTRATION -First session (TBA)

Racing Release Statement

We encourage small sailboat sailing!  But you need to understand that water sports in general carry some risk. Please read and sign the waiver prior to participating in our club events.

SAILBOATS

Need a hand getting your boat ready to sail? Our members have experience and are happy to help out. Throughout the year, we are happy to offer free public sailboat clinics to assist you in getting your sailboat rigged and on the water.  Just contact us for upcoming opportunities.

No boat yet? Sometimes, we have  donated boats available for purchase with a very small fee.   Club members also have boats for sale occasionally.  As a non-profit organization, we also offer free advice for purchasing your own small sailboat.

Have a boat that you'd like to donate to us?  Donate your boat to our club and consider a tax deduction for your donation.
