ABOUT OUR 420 CLASSES
***We are working on dates for the Fall 2025 Class. Dates will be available on August 1st.
Our comprehensive program is designed to introduce your child to the foundational principles of sailing on 420s, including:
· Basic Sailing Techniques – Learn the ropes, tacking & jibing, intermediate & essential knots, points of sail, parts of boat, rigging the 420, and sailing theory!
· Navigational Skills – Understanding wind/current patterns and right of way.
· Teamwork and Communication – Essential skills for successful crew coordination.
· Safety Procedures – Building confidence with proper safety protocols and marine radio management.
· Boat Handling – Getting comfortable with different types of dinghy sailboats and using body weight to your advantage.
· Developing the Racing Mindset: Effectively call tactics, work in competitive, high-pressure scenarios, and reading the racecourse. Opportunities to spectate local regattas too!
No prior sailing experience is needed – just a passion for the challenge and a willingness to learn! Each session combines hands-on instruction with fun, team-building activities, ensuring your young sailor gains both skill and confidence on the water.
We look forward to seeing you on the water!
