Prerequisite: BKB 101

Now that you're serious about the fun of sailing, you will learn to handle a Catalina 34 with wheel steering and diesel engine. Since you already understand sailing, this program refines skills and makes you a more proficient sailor. The course graduate is able to coordinate advanced sail trim principles with wind conditions and build confidence in boat handling in a variety of wind situations. This 2 day class is exciting, demanding, and a lot of FUN!

You will sail with your qualified ISS instructor and a maximum of three other students sharing all sailing tasks and receiving personalized attention. You'll review basic maneuvers and build an increased sailing sense and awareness through exciting drills and challenges.

The following are just a few of the many skills you will learn from this course:

  • The art of sailing upwind, techniques of reaching and running
  • Recover a person (or object) overboard
  • Practice principles of dead reckoning and use the compass to find your position
