PARENT AND CHILD OPTIS
Parents, this is your chance to learn to sail with your young child who is between 4-6 years old. This class provides an opportunity for parents and children to experience sailing for the first time together in the small and fun Optimist Pram sailboats. Students are guided by an MSC instructor, learning basic sailing skills and gaining confidence on the water. There’s fun on shore with games, stories, songs, and more!
The fee covers both parent and child. Only the child needs to be registered.
Note: The Optimist is a small boat that requires bending down/crouching, stepping in and out, and getting your feet wet. In this class you will be in a boat alone with your child, if you prefer a more comfortable sailing experience with an instructor, check out the Family Sailing Class.
FAMILY KEELBOAT CLASS
The Family Keelboat Class is designed to teach sailing to the whole family, ages 4 and up in a comfortable and stable Ensign Keelboat. This class provides an opportunity for the entire family to experience sailing for the first time together.
No prior knowledge is necessary for any family members, as they learn how to sail with an instructor on Ensign sailboats. The majority of the course is spent on the water learning the basic concepts of sailing and getting comfortable in the boat.
