First Sail
Looking for a chance to get your feet wet? Well here it is. Join our amazing instructors for a 3 hour mini lesson and a sail on the bay. In our regular classes, you’ll be in your own boat, but for this taste, you’ll share the boat with 3 other beginners and an instructor. It’s going to be so much fun, you’ll be so glad you did this

Class Notes
Sailing Level 1
Participants will learn from experienced instructors as they sail across the San Francisco Bay in responsive Zest sailboats. Eight days over the course of four weekends is what it takes to get ready to sail on your own. These highly sought after classes are quick to sell out. After passing the course you can some and practice in the boats during Open Boating.
Participants must be able to attend all eight class meetings. – Due to tidal conditions at the marina we are only able to offer this two courses during the fall of 2023.

Sailing Level 2: Sunset Social Sailing
Come for a sunset sail! Join other sailors, and their friends, to go out in the afternoon and sail in the setting sun. It’s a California adventure! After we sail and put everything away, bring something to share with your fellow sailors, and we’ll supply the hot cocoa! This program is a lot like our full moon paddle, but with sailboats.
This course is only open to people who know how to sail, either through our classes or a check out sail at the Marina.
