Sailing Education
Tips for Newbies
Conveying knowledge about sailing is a major focus of the club. It is strongly promoted through club sails, the monthly general meeting and at specially designated instructional gatherings known as "Sailing Orientation Sessions" or SOS. The club's captains and experienced members are the primary teachers but the Vice Commodore also schedules programs and events featuring outside experts.
Subjects taught at the SOS include sessions such as:
Sailboat Terminology
Safety at Sea
Lines and Knots
Boat Etiquette
Dinghy Handling
During 2007 the club will hold educational SOS gatherings on April 21, July 22 and in October/November.
The April 21th SOS will be held at Lighthouse Point Marina.
Captain's and crew should contact the Sailing Director to sign up for these events.
