Sailing Skills Clinics for New and Returning Sailors
Sailing on San Francisco Bay is a challenging and exhilarating experience. Our extensive fleet of yachts ranging from 30 - 42 ft. offers a large range of vessels suitable for every skill level. If you are new to sailing, haven’t been at the helm in a while or just want to brush up on chartering and best practices, an Introductory Sail or Refresher Course is for you.
If you are comfortable with our Silver Fleet, have the required on-the-water experience, and are prepared to upgrade your San Francisco sailing experience, it’s time to take an upgrade clinic. The Gold Fleet Upgrade Clinic prepares you to safely handle boats in the size range of 33-37 ft.
In-Depth Sailing Skills Clinics
Practice makes perfect - and it’s never been more true than polishing a sailing skill. In collaboration with our skilled and knowledgeable captains, we have developed several sailing skills clinics to help both intermediate and advanced sailors alike.
Learn how to properly trim your sails when you take the Mastering Sail Trim, Light Wind Sailing Techniques, or Mastering Cruising Asymmetrical Spinnaker clinics. Impress your friends when you pick up a mooring ball on the first try at Angel Island after taking the Angel Island Mooring Clinic. Advance your sailing skills even further with Heavy Weather Sailing, or the Electronic Piloting and Radar Clinic.
