Private Instruction
(Introductory & Refresher Courses)

If you are interested in polishing your existing sailing skills (docking, anchoring, heavy weather, crew overboard rescue techniques, racing, coastal navigation, spinnaker work, knots, etc.), advancing on new topics, or are simply looking to enjoy an introduction to the sport, we offer customized private instruction. Please contact the school director to arrange the dates and times that suit your availability. Also, we are able to make food and/or beverage arrangements during your lesson.
