Women Sailing with Women Basic Keelboat Class Join us for a 4-hour Learn to Sail workshop on a Colgate this Saturday afternoon (June 29). We have 1 student confirmed so far and can take up to 6. The description is below. This is a great opportunity to gain knowledge and confidence in a relaxed, supportive environment without committing to more than a half day or breaking the bank. Please contact Cathy Scott @ [email protected] ASAP. We also have 1 more slot available for the ASA 101 certification course on July 6-7. There will be a few hours in "classroom" at the club beforehand, and you will be on the water all day the 6th & 7th...I have been assured the boat will come into the dock for potty breaks. :) LEARN TO SAIL Objectives: This workshop will introduce and reinforce the theory of sailing through practical exercises.
