ADULT SAILING PROGRAMS
Nantucket Yacht Club - Adult Sailing Offerings for 2020!
Please register for classes on the NYC Sailing Calendar!
Adult Laser Clinics: Tuesday & Thursday 2:15 - 4:45, Saturday & Sunday 9:30-12:00
We use drills and games that mimic aspects of racing, to gain a better understanding of the Laser. This is a great opportunity for many to experience this fun singlehanded craft.
Rhodes Mixers: Tuesday & Thursday from 9:30 - 12
Use drills and games to improve your sailing and racing in the Rhodes 19! You can sign up as a team, as an individual, as a couple...whatever works for you!
Rhodes Casual Distance Sailing: Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday from 9:30-12:00 PM
This class is engineered to give the less competitively oriented sailors an option to get on the water with some oversight and instruction.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
- Instructors will not be in boats. Sailors will need to be capable of getting on and off the mooring and successfully navigating the mooring field without an instructor on board.
- We will be sailing in Optimum Sailing Conditions only, to minimize the need for rescues that will compromise social distancing. If a class needs to be canceled due to poor conditions, we will endeavor to make the call 30 minutes before the start of class.
- If you are sailing with members who do not live with you in the same home, masks must be worn the whole time you are sailing.
- We suggest that you form a steady, or semi-steady, team of three that sail together. If you don’t have your own team, we can help pair you with other sailors – in this instance, you will need to be comfortable sailing in close proximity to others.
- While there are not instructors in the boats, we want to welcome sailors of any experience level to participate – please contact the Sail Office before registering so that we can help you find the right class fit!
For more information, please email or call Rebecca in the Sailing Department!
