Summer Fun on the Water

Adult and youth private lessons are available on a very flexible basis through the beginning of August given current staffing. Those seeking introduction to our Waterfront Access fleets or any level of sailing instruction are encouraged to take advantage of the opportunity for use through the Fall!
