Learn to Sail
Contact: learntosail@pcyc.net
Sailing is a sport that you can enjoy your whole life. Our Learn to Sail programs are divided into Youth Learn to Sail (5-18), Youth Racing (10-18) and Adult Training (18+). Please read on to learn more about sailing and PCYC.
Registration will be available to PCYC members January 8th and to non-members on January 19th!
Sailing is truly the ultimate lifetime sport. It’s a sport that can be enjoyed from the time you are 5, right through to your 80's or older. You can test your skills racing or explore the world cruising.
There is no other sport that packs as many life lessons as does sailing. Sailing teaches teamwork, engineering, history, patience, oceanography and ecology everytime you hit the water. Sailing rigorously tests not only the mind but the body as well. Throughout your life you can customize the sport to meet any need, from a relaxing day on the water to blasting along on a full plane in 20 knots of wind, from going solo to being part of a well-tuned team. Your options are endless. Consider that every time you leave the harbour you have an opportunity to learn something new. The pull of the wind or the size of the seas are never, ever exactly the same.
So if you love a challenge, love the wind in your face and want an opportunity to gain the true confidence that is only achieved through effort – then sailing is your sport.
The Learn to Sail Program at PCYC is one of the largest in Ontario with over 250 sailors being evaluated each year. With a staff of 15, all aspects of your learning experince will be looked after.
PCYC is devoting an unprecedented amount of resources into renewing its fleet and facilities, to ensure your experience will be in a premier sailing environment. We are aware that the finest boats in the world are nothing without great teachers, which is why PCYC is committed to bringing together the best group of instructors each year to ensure you spend your summer becoming the best sailor you can be!
Finally, because we love having fun almost as much as we love sharing our passion for sailing, it is a great way to pass a beautiful summer. See you on the water.
