This program is designed to provide a safe and enjoyable introduction to dinghy sailing for teenagers (13-17 years).

They learn to sail in pairs or threes in stable sailboats called Quests. They learn the basics of boat handling, and manoeuvring, practice safety drills and how to recover from a capsize. Each session is built around fun and social interaction, and working as a team, so it feels more like an adventure than a lesson. It’s the perfect way for teenagers to make new friends while splashing around on the water.

Course fee $360.
