CCS lessons are held at Canandaigua Yacht Club. No membership is required. Group sessions for beginners run from mid-June through the end of August. Each session is two weeks, Monday - Thursday, for 2.5 hours in the evening. Participants will follow the US Sailing curriculum and learn boat rigging, steering, sail trim, reading the wind, docking, and other skills necessary to be competent, self-sufficient sailors. Instruction is primarily in Sunfish sailboats. An intermediate/advanced session will be held from August 18 - August 28, which will focus on more advanced boat handling skills and some racing skills and may utilize 420 and/or Vanguard 15 sailboats. If the lesson schedule doesn't work for you, please contact us to see if alternate arrangements can be made. Group lessons and small-group keelboat instruction (leading to the US Sailing Keelboat certificiation) can also be arranged, on demand. Private lessons are available as well.
