Advanced Sailing Lessons

This is a one day course. During the morning session you are introduced to the FJ, and in the afternoon you work with the Lasers. You not only learn how to properly rig and de-rig the boats, you are also introduced to boat handling skills of these more advanced boats and learn about balance and trim. During each morning and afternoon session you spend about the first hour at the dock and the remaining two hours in the boats on the water.
All of our Advance Lessons are taught by US Sailing Small Boat Level 1 Certified Instructors.
This course is scheduled for May 15 and will run from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. The cost of Advanced Lessons is $100.

Prerequisite: We assume that you have passed our learn-to-sail course on the Flying Scot or have equivalent experience. See the curriculum overview of our learn-to-sail course to judge your skill level. We also assume that if you sign up for this course that you can swim 100 yards in clothes and can tread water for two minutes.

Please bring additional clothes. A capsize recovery is part of this course in order to get signed off on the Laser.
