Whether you've just taken the Basic Sailing Theory ground school
or you're waiting for the next class offering, join our weekly
weekend two-hour instructional sailing outings on Lake Lanier. During prime season
we additionally conduct outings during the week evenings. See our
calendar of classes for exact dates and times.
The sailing outings are designed to complement the ground school
programs with "hands on" training. Sail with us all season or until
you've achieved certification or your own personal goals.

Sailing Theory (101)
We teach you HOW to sail on the water, but the ground
schools are intended to help you understand
WHY the physics and theory make it all possible.
The following
Special Gear Is STRONGLY Suggested
For Outings.
Basic Keelboat Sailing certification is available upon completion of the
written exam and the sailing skill sets. Although the
Basic Sailing Theory ground school is highly recommended in
conjunction with the sailing outings, they are not a requirement due
to our "open campus" approach.
