Monday – Friday
0900 - 1130
Ages: 6-8
Boats: Fleet member donated rowing dinghies
The Rowing class serves as an introduction to the Fleet for young future sailors. Students will learn the basics of rowing, knot tying, and gain comfort around boats and the water. The goal of this class is to foster a love of the water, the Fleet, and boating. Exploration of the tidal areas surrounding the club is encouraged as a part of the curriculum, as well as hands-on activities that tie into the day’s lesson.
Monday – Friday
0900 - 1130
Ages: 8-12
Boats: RS Ventures
The Learn to Sail program is designed for younger children that are completely new to sailing. This class is focused on learning the basics in a fun, safe environment. Parts of the boat, basic knots, rigging and de-rigging, points of sail, boat handling, and basic seamanship are all covered as a part of class. This class is held on our larger, stable fleet of RS Ventures with weighted keels that are impossible to capsize. Sailors are grouped together and accompanied by an instructor in each boat.
Monday – Friday
0900 - 1130
Ages 9-12
Boats: RS Teras
The Beginner Tera class is designed for sailors who have completed a Learn-to-Sail session and are ready to learn how to sail a Tera dinghy on their own without an instructor in their boat. Beginner Tera sailors will often start sailing in pairs before they gain the confidence to sail on their own. Sailors will continue to build on their knot tying, boat handling, and seamanship skills.
Monday – Friday
0900 - 1130
Ages 12-17
Boats: RS Teras
The Intermediate Tera class is for older sailors that have prior dinghy sailing experience and know the basics well. The goal of this class is to further develop boat handling and seamanship skills with an emphasis on having fun on the water. This class will take part in weekly distance sailing trips to explore the surrounding waters, as well as activities and games on the water. This is not a racing-focused class, but sailors will be introduced to racing, and will have the option to participate in weekly race days. Sailors will also learn right-of-way rules and cruising skills such as anchoring, docking, navigating, and more.
