Adult Beginner Learn-to-Sail
Using US Sailing’s Beginner Curriculum, students learn the basics of rigging, sailing theory, safety, knots, docking and right of way rules in our double-handed, 14 ft. Club 420s. Classes concentrate on teaching the basics of sailing, while spending as much time as possible on the water. Participants must know how to swim and will be asked to complete a 50-foot swim test with a lifejacket.

3 Hour Private Lessons
All Ages
All Levels
Private lessons are a great way to learn or advance your skills while sailing individually, with a friend, or with the whole family. Private lessons allow coaches to give personalized feedback and teach to your particular skill level. During our private lessons the coach will either be in the boat with you or along side in a powerboat. Lessons last three hours and are available by appointment through the office. Private lessons can be taught in your privately owned boat or one of the club’s 420s, Lasers, or Optis. Call or email the office to schedule a Private Lesson 503-246-5345 or director@willamettesailingclub.com
