About this Event
Sailing is a sport unlike any other. It can be enjoyed at any age, it offers equal opportunities to men and women, while race and social status are irrelevant. Sailing brings challenge and satisfaction, fulfillment and adrenaline-surging excitement. It offers a sense of freedom and independence that, once experienced often leads to healthy addiction. For those who catch that sailing bug, there is rarely any cure.
It’s become our club’s tradition to host one day sailing lesson for people who’ve never tried sailing. Many people think of sailing a boat as of something dangerous, expensive, inaccessible and difficult to get into or learn. Little do they know that there is a place in Brooklyn where everyone is welcome to sail, learn and enjoy this beautiful sport. So, let your dream become a reality. Spend a day with dreamers like yourself, learning sailing. At the end of the class you will be invited as guests for our special “Seek&Sail”.
This is a 5 hour sailing class with lunch, starting at 10AM. Our sailing course prepares you for a lifetime of sailing. With emphasis on hands on learning , we teach you practical skills that enable confidence and control on the water. You will learn nautical terminology, sailing theory, water safety, knots, how to properly rig a sailboat, basic maneuvers of a sail boat, points of sail, sail trim and much more.
On our "Seek and Sail" day you get to practice everything you have learned in class. You will be at the helm and will command the boat through all of the fundamental maneuvers.
