Refresher Course

Registration for the 2024 Sailing Season Refresher Course is now open. 

The Sessions are listed as white hyperlinks in the red box below as you scroll down this page. Please select one of the Sessions and it will show you the date of the Lesson as well as how many available spaces are left remaining. 

We have reached capacity for a couple of the Sessions which is not unusual as the Refresher Course class size is just four sailors per Session. Please find an available Session and register yourself/issue payment. We will likely completely sell out to capacity, so best to secure your space while you can!

Waitlist Option: For the Sessions that are at capacity, there is a "Join Waitlist" button available when you open up the white hyperlinks in the red box below. You are welcome to add your information to as many of the Sessions' waitlists as you are interested in attending.

The possibility of moving off of a waitlist (for any of the Sessions) and being able to accommodate you is fairly unlikely, but please do add yourself to the waitlist(s). Typically, we find that once students are "able to get in," they tend to hang on and rarely do we experience cancellations.  Should openings occur where you're on the waitlist(s), we'll absolutely be in touch with you! But, as relayed, it would be rare.

We look forward to welcoming you to DC Sail's Refresher Course!

Thank you!
