We offer 3 hour sailing experiences accommodating up to 6 with a minimum age of 5. Cost is $600 for a three hour experience. Sailing times are 2-5PM and 5:30 to 8:30PM daily.

Sailing is For Everyone
We have a variety of Experiences from Mellow to Wet and Wild
For new sailors and families sailing for the first time we recommend our most mellow experience which is a private group charter on our Hobie 33 pictured above top. If you want to solidify the basics and become proficient, sign up for our week long family or adult course on our Melges 24 Raceboat where we'll take you racing on Wednesday night! Once you have the basics you are ready to try Laser Sailing/Racing for Youth and Adults. The Laser is physical, very fast and tippy! This is where saling gets really exciting! Bring your wetsuit because you'll be swimming!

Join our Laser Race Team!
We're looking for both boys and girls age 12-21 who LOVE sailing and sailboat racing. This is a high performance race team training 4 weeks in the summer with Nick Pullen and traveling to regattas and training events throughout the year on the west coast.
Joining the team is a big commitment and is for kids who really love the sport and want to become champions. The good news is that the boats are provided and there is funding for travel and coaching.
The investment required to participate is similar to downhill ski racing. Athletes are required to obtain sailing specific clothing for protection from the elements and pay for 4 weeks of coaching.
