Learning to sail is the start of a lifelong journey that can lead to racing, cruising and instructing others. Our sailing school staff have grown out of the Learn to Sail Program at Cobourg Yacht Club.
The Sailing School, established in 1965 when the club first formed, is open to everyone who wishes to discover the challenge and excitement of sailing. The school offers instruction from Wet Feet (Optimist - Ages 6 -10) through CANSail 1 to CANSail 4 (Age 9 -15). All programs are taught to the Sail Canada standards and all of our instructor staff are Sail Canada certified.
Once again this year, we are offering all parents/ guardians of the students enrolled in our Youth Learn to Sail programs, all the benefits of a social club membership (known as an Associate member) until the end of the calendar year to enjoy the many club facilities and events.
Learn to Sail at the CYC emphasizes:
CYC Centreboard Instructors are trained and certified by Sail Canada. Instructors teach using the CANSail curricula which is the standard across Canada. It includes a progression of skills and knowledge both ashore and afloat. The Sail Canada ratio of students to instructors is maintained.
Sailing lessons make a great gift.

Sincerely,
