ADULT START KEELBOAT SAILING:
Welcome to our Adult Start Keelboat Sailing sessions. We look forward to helping you get closer to your sailing dreams.
The PERFECT ‘try sailing/boating’ introduction. Learn the basics of boating in this exciting 20-hour experience.
Conquer 5 – 20 knots of wind in moderate wave conditions with your Sail Canada Certified Instructor. You’ll learn nautical terms, boat anatomy, knots and navigation. It’s a great way for both future power boaters and sailors to begin their on-water adventures.
We’ll teach you boat handling under sail & power, docking and emergency procedures. Boat maneuvering, safety procedures and time on-water are critical to both power and sailing, so we encourage all those with an interest in getting on the lake to sign up!
