Intermediate level, 4 sessions, offered 9am - noon, 1pm - 4pm, 5pm - 8pm

The purpose of this course is to solidify and expand on material and skills taught in the Level 1 Course, it is ideal for those who only have some previous sailing experience requiring a refresher course before moving on to more advanced skills or for those who have previously taken the Level 1 Course but are not yet fully confident with the material. It will be taught in small groups in a stable and comfortable 23-foot Sonar keelboat and a 26-foot J/80. Prior to beginning this course students should have some familiarity with the basics of sailing including steering with a tiller and rudder, points of sail and sail trim, and tacking and gybing. Skills that this course covers that are generally not taught in the Level 1 Course include anchoring, mooring, and motor operation. 

​

By the end of this course the goal is to have students comfortable with all the basic skills and knowledge of sailing, and to be comfortable carrying out those skills in most wind conditions with little or no assistance from an instructor
