The camp is an introduction to sailing for those new to sailing, or for those children already enrolled in learn-to-sail program who would like some additional ‘time-on-the-water’ with coaches to quickly improve their sailing skills.
Depending on the wind conditions Avalon Sailing club has access to various types of boats in which to learn. There will be some theory but mostly fun out on the water.
During the three days, the participants will learn:
• Water safety
• Parts of the boat and what rope pulls which sail
• Points of sail – upwind, downwind, reaching and running
• Rules of the water – Port and Starboard
• How to steer a tiller boat
• Crew and skipper positions and roles
• Tacking and gybing
Limited to 15 per camp, bookings essential to secure your spot.
Cost is $300.00pp for the three days.
