Race Clinics

This is a great primer course to see if the Basic Keelboat course is something you are interested in. It is also an educational and enjoyable boat ride. You will learn the basics of how a sailboat works and enjoy some time on beautiful Charleston Harbor. You will steer, handle sails, learn about tides and currents and navigate the boat back to the dock.

Our focus classes are designed for any sailor who would like to strengthen or refresh specific sailing skills. Each class can be taught in a half-day or full-day format, although we suggest that the Spinnaker Work Focus Class be taught in the full-day format.

Every Wednesday evening from early spring to late fall, you can join us on one of our race boats. As part of the team, you will learn race rules, tactics, sail handling, close quarter, upwind, downwind, starting and weight placement in heavy, moderate and light air, and crew teamwork.
