This course is for adults with previous sailing experience who are confident and comfortable performing all basic sailing procedures independently and are looking to expand their knowledge and skills. Prior to beginning this course students should be able to confidently rig and derig a sailboat, confidently steer with a tiller and rudder, correctly trim their sails, and carry out tacks and gybes in most wind conditions. If you would like to register for this course, but have not previously taken lessons at LWSA, please reach out to our Adult Lesson Coordinator, Toby Wilkinson (toby@lwsa.org) to discuss your previous sailing experience and if this course will be right for you. Topics covered include sail shape, controls, and tuning, and asymmetric spinnaker handling, anchoring and mooring under power. Please contact us to discuss your specific needs and goals. . By the end of this course the goal is to have students capable of handling a sailboat completely independently in most wind conditions and to introduce them to more advanced skills that may be used as they venture further into the sailing world whether that be purchasing and sailing their own boat, or trying out racing.
