About Our Sailing Programs

Important stuff for Students (and parents)

 

Every student should bring sunglasses, sunscreen, a hat, a water bottle, and their own Personal Floatation Device (that's a life jacket) with a whistle attached. 

​

For footwear, the sailors need something that will protect their feet but can get wet. We recommend some kind of neoprene sailing shoes or athletic sandals that cover the toes. Crocs don't really work.

Trust me, it's been tried.

 

All students MUST wear a life jacket when they are on, near, or in the water.  We’ve found that students who can swim are more comfortable, but not mandatory.

​
All FBYC sailing classes run 9 am to 4 pm. Please be on time in the morning as there is a lot to pack into a day. Picking up students early is discouraged as they are usually out on the water.

 

FBYC Sailing School does not provide lunch. Students are expected to bring their own meals and snacks. Bring lots. This is a very active camp and they will get hungry. 

​

We promise to return your child to you at the end of the day. But be warned, they will probably be wet, exhausted, and talking non-stop about how much fun they had.
