INTERMEDIATE COURSES AND INTRODUCTION TO RACING
Once you've completed your Introduction to Sailing Course, and come
along on a couple of Friday twilight or Sunday races, you may be
interested in learning more about sailing and/or racing. These courses
will also be held in the coming weeks.
Following your first course, we’ll contact you to find out where you
want to go next and in what kind of boat.
