Adult Catboat Lessons 2025

Using the uniquely versatile catboat as our vessel of choice, the Catboat Program focuses on developing sailing skills through a series of courses designed to help participants reach their potential regardless of their previous experience.

Beginner Catboat: Level1
The level one course is open to anyone who has never sailed,needs a refresher or has never sailed a Catboat. The course runs four consecutive days and allows participants to experience varying weather patterns and instructor styles while learning the basic sailing principles.This course is a wonderful introduction into the world of Catboat sailing.

Intermediate Catboat: Level 2
The level two course expands on the building blocks from the level 1 class.This course dives a little deeper over the four days.Since every one's sailing skills can differ, our instructors tailor their instruction specifically to each student.The class goal is to teach independence and confidence. Many students take more than one session of the level 2 class before moving on ti the Advanced: Level 3 class.

Race Nights
The Catboat Program welcomes catboaters of all levels to join our laid-back Race Committee for Friday evening races. Fun is the #1 prize! Second Place is a sense of community and Third Place is building up your skills, whether as a super crew or novice skipper. The main thing is to have fun; the by-product will be subconscious learning. We do follow rules, but there are no protests, no awards ceremonies or stressful competition. There are cookouts, get togethers, camaraderie, good laughs and another weekly opportunity to set sail.
