Private Lessons

Three hour private sailing lessons are offered throughout the summer.  All private lessons are taught with an on board instructor in a Flying Scot. Flying Scots generally accommodate one, two, or three students (at least one of whom must be at least 18 years of age). It is not uncommon for two or more family members to share a lesson. Larger groups may require two boats, each with an instructor. Children sailing with a parent must be at least 6 years old and able to swim. 

Please schedule private lessons at least a week in advance whenever possible. Lessons are $300 for three hours per required instructor and contingent on the availability of instructors and boats. All private lessons use Flying Scots.
