The "Learn to Sail" program is designed for individuals who have minimal to no prior sailing experience. This is a more relaxed, introductory program where participants can learn the basics of sailing from current team members. The focus is on building foundational skills in a supportive, less competitive environment. It’s a great choice for those who are interested in exploring sailing, gaining confidence on the water, and enjoying the sport without the pressure of competition. The cost for this option is lower, making it more accessible for beginners.
INFORMATION FOR NEW SAILORS
Gear:
Sailing gear is weather and commitment-dependent. The most essential item to have is a life jacket, which is a requirement when on the water. We have limited extras, so if you're thinking about committing to the team, we suggest getting a life jacket as the priority. More gear includes sailing shoes/boots and gloves, which can be helpful to prevent rope burn and provide comfort. Additionally, spray gear is for intense weather conditions to keep you dry while sailing. More information about specific brands and pricing can be found below.
