Intro to Sailing
CLASS SUMMARY:
A one day class intended to introduce someone with no prior sailing experience to the joys of sailing. This also a good opportunity to meet ANSA instructors or as a chance to hone rusty skills. Students will meet at the boat and after short introductions and crew briefing will be heading out on the water where the majority of the instruction takes place. Students will have a chance to be hands-on while learning the basics of sailing including undocking, docking, tacking and jibing.
