DBYC Friday Afternoon Learn to Sail – Tackers Program
Tackers 2 keeps the fun front and centre while introducing gybing, getting out of irons, and sailing around a triangle course.
Tackers 3 focuses on advancing sailing skills through games and on-water adventures.
Once enrolled, sailors will be grouped into appropriate classes based on age and ability.
Minimum age
Sailors must be 8 years or older to participate in the Tackers courses.
What to bring
All sailors are required to wear:
A lifejacket
Hat and sunscreen
Closed-toe shoes (old runners or wetsuit boots — no thongs or Crocs)
Please bring your own lifejacket if possible. These can be purchased from outdoor retailers such as Anaconda or BCF. DBYC has a limited supply available to borrow if requested. You'll also need a full water bottle, snack, towel and a change of clothes each session.
