Aquatic Adventures
Sailing
The Sailing Series is designed to help participants become familiar with rigging various types of boats and become comfortable with harnessing the wind. The Introduction to Sailing class is a great course for people interested in sailing, but who have had limited to no experience. The Intermediate class builds upon the skills learned in Introduction to Sailing and prepares the participant for being able to successfully sail on their own.
