Sailing Lessons – $50/hr

Our sailing lessons consist of 12 core skills, designed to build a strong, competent, independent sailor.  Custom lessons are available if you need to work on specific skills (racing, high wind adventure sailing..), we can work with any student to help them grow their sailing skills.

You can learn to sail on either a Hobie Cat 16 or a Vanguard 15, or learn on both to expand your sailing skills.
