Sailing Programs & Schedule
Pee-Wee
An introductory sailing course for the little guys and gals, ages 5
to 7. Students learn the names of parts of a boat, how to tie
knots, and principles of the wind. This is a 6 hours course
taught in 3 two-hour sessions. As a grand finale, students go
for a brief sail with an experienced sailor.
Learn-to-Sail
Ten day courses taught in popular and safe Optimist Dinghies by a
US Sailing-certified Instructor. Students learn the basics of
sailing, knot tying, safety, and are out on the water daily (weather
permitting). This course is suited for children ages 8 to 14
that have had little or no sailing experience. Learn-to-Sail
students may participate in our RHYC Optimist Green Fleet Regatta in
July.
Advanced
Two-week sessions with an emphasis on racing rules and tactics. This
course is best for children 8 to 14 who have completed a
Learn-to-Sail program or the equivalent and are ready to advance to
the next level of sailing and racing. Students in this class
will have the opportunity to participate in
RHYC Junior Regattas and other
CBYRA Junior
Regattas.
Racing Team
Team sailors get intense racing tactics and practice to ready them
to participate in regattas on the Chesapeake bay and nearby venues.
The team is focused in Optis and Laser Radials and 420s. Students at this level
will have participated in both Learn-to-Sail and Advanced or
equivalent sailing programs and are ready to refine their racing
skills in a team environment. Students on the racing team will
be participating in
CBYRA Junior
Regattas in the Chesapeake Bay and vicinity.
Adult
Learn to sail on your own schedule in centerboard or small keel sailboats. Private lessons can be arranged for weekdays or
weekends.

Introduction to Small Boat Sailing is held each spring and
fall for men and women. This
course offers a one day class including a two hour classroom
basics of boat parts, boat rigging, knot tying lessons, and
sail theory followed by an afternoon of sailing on Club 420s.
Each participant gets a chance to skipper the boat. We use the US
Sailing book "Start
Sailing Right". This is a very enjoyable class for
participants!
