CANsail 5&6
Prerequisites: Completion of CANsail 1-4
These levels allow our sailors to experience the level of training required to be part of a race team, while continuing to develop the skills learned in previous levels. Students are welcome to bring their own boat.
Please note: Participation at regattas within the province (at a minimum) is an integral part of the program and requires a commitment from both the parents and the sailors. Regattas require travel, and parents may be needed for some travel planning and assistance at regattas. This program is offered in 2 week sessions, however up to 6 to 8 weeks are recommended for this level of sailor.
Wetfeet
Recommended ages 7-9
Prerequisites: None
The Wet Feet program is a wonderful course to expose young children to the sailing community. These fun-filled sessions allow kids to get used to how it feels to be in a small boat on the water. It is ideal for kids that are unfamiliar with boats, and who might be apprehensive about being on the water.
