Youth Sailing at Corinthian University

Corinthian University's Youth Sailing programs are designed to teach children ages 8 to 18 sailing and water-related skills in a fun, structured, and social environment. Through class and personal instruction, programs aim to develop knowledgeable youth sailors while instilling a lifelong love of boating in a safe environment. We value the goals of safety, fun, and learning over competition.

Youth Sailing Evenings
Beginners start by learning the basics of sailing in Prams, Optimists, and 420s. They learn the part of a boat and practice rigging the boats and build confidence on the water. As they progress, instruction focuses on improving techniques, speed, and accuracy to maximize their sailing potential.  Monday Evenings throughout the summer (we generally follow the CPS calendar for start and end dates). Our best valued program.
