Session as.35

Goal: Independent safe sailing in challenging situations with full rig.
Skills: The class focuses on separating out the major parts of the boat (main, jib, rudder, keel) so that skippers understand how each of them works independently of the others, and can get them to work together to solve various problems. Meetings cover slow sailing, sailing backwards, sailing without a main, sailing without a rudder, docking and leaving a dock, heave-to and man overboard. The class increases skipper's confidence at handling the boat in tricky situations. The class also introduces downwind sailing with 2 and 3 crew using spinnakers, so that you can incorporate spinnakers into your racing and longer sails.

Required Prep: To participate, Student must have completed Level 2 or get Instructor approval.
