About This Activity
ADVANCED: This course, taught in Club 420 dinghies, Laser Radial and Full Laser sailboats, is for older students (ages 12-17) who have been recommended for the level three class or have equivalent experience. This course will build upon the skills learned in the Beginner and Intermediate classes. Each student will receive a US Sailing Intermediate Sailing Manual and a packet of sailing diagrams and informational materials. Students' skills will be constantly evaluated and at the appropriate time those who are interested will be introduced to advanced concepts. Students will learn to become more aware of wind and weather, learn to read and follow a chart and will focus on more advanced sailing, boat handling and safety skills, including tacking, jibing and landing a sailboat. Depending on weather an “Ice Cream Sail” across the Peace River to Fisherman’s Village or Laishley Marina will happen on Wednesday (Campers will need $5.00 for ice cream). A “Mini Regatta” will be sailed on Thursday and Friday followed by a Pizza Party and Certificate Awards.
