JULY 29th - Aug 2nd,
9am–3pM DAILY
AGES 6-14—$365

Our summer sailing program is a great way for youth to learn the basics of sailing and get more comfortable out on the water. Campers learn in different boats including Optis, where they are the captain of their own boat, and on 420 dinghies, where a skipper and crew sail together. One of the exciting moments of each week is “adventure day” (weather permitting) where campers get to experience sailing as a group on our unique traditional wooden vessels built by The Apprenticeshop. 

Everyone is welcome, regardless of experience! We group students based on their skill level, whether this is their first time in a boat or their hundredth. Many of our instructors are teens who have grown up through this program themselves; they are eager to pass on their skills and keep sailing alive!
