IS SAILING FOR EVERYONE? One of the primary aims of our sailing school is to introduce people to the sport of sailing and break down barriers, either perceived or real. Our classes start with offerings for youth age 4 and up. We also provide introductory classes for adults and families. Sailing is a sport that can be enjoyed for an entire lifetime. It is a great way to make friends, while enjoying the natural beauty of the Chain O'Lakes.
