Summer Cruising Under Sail- Adults
This program is currently unavailable. Click here to view all of our current programs.
Join a crew with 5 other adults and an instructor and learn to sail a 23’ keelboat. Students will learn to row a dinghy, set and strike sail, steer, navigate, use a marine radio, operate a small outboard, watch the weather, tie knots, and follow basic safety all while sailing all over Casco Bay for a week. Our primary instructional boat, the Pearson Ensign, is a strong, unsinkable fiberglass boat that is still actively raced (and still being built) more than 30 years after her introduction. Ensigns are probably the most comfortable sailboat ever built. They have high backrests and a large, deep cockpit and plenty of space for students to learn and work together while staying separated and outdoors.
There will be two boats for each week that can accommodate 6 adults each. After we receive 6 registrations for a given week, we will wait list additional registrants until we reach an additional 6.
