    NEW Adult Sailing Program
    Introduction to Keelboat Sailing


    The Introduction to Keelboat Sailing class is for beginner sailors or prior sailors who would like to refresh their skills. This class is a combination of onshore lessons and hands-on practice on the water in a Rhodes 19. "Keelboat" refers to a boat that has a permanent keel rather than a moveable centerboard or daggerboard. 

    The Rhodes 19 is a recreational keelboat used for both leisurely day sailing and one-design racing.

    Sailors may bring snacks or water bottles as desired, as well as order lunch through the St. Croix Yacht Club Galley. The clubhouse has a water fill station for refillable water bottles. 

    Other optional (recommended) equipment: Hat, sunglasses, water shoes, sailing gloves.

    Sailing is a physical activity. Participants should be able to move between the club launch and the Rhodes 19, balance on a moving boat, be situationally aware of the vessel's moving parts, and be able to pull on lines that will be under load. Sailors additionally should be able to demonstrate adequate swimming ability in swimming short distances and treading water while wearing a PFD.
