Youth Classes (ages 9-16)
Youth sailing classes run in two-week periods and are designed to give a basic appreciation of watercraft and sailing safety. Participants are placed according to size, ability, and experience into beginner and intermediate classes. Classes are taught in our fleet of Vanguard Optimist Prams and Cape Cod Mercury keelboats. So whether your child is a beginner or a seasoned returnee, our program will cater to your young sailor’s needs. Cost: $200

MONDAY - THURSDAY, 1:00 PM - 3:30 PM
Session I: June 23 - July 3
Session II: July 7- July 17
Session III: July 21 - July 31
Session IV: Aug 4- Aug 14


Adv. Race Team (ages 13-18)
BCCB’s Race Team is customized for students who are serious about racing. Taught solely in Vanguard 420 centerboard boats, the course is designed to provide comprehensive and intensive training in a practice-racing format. Teamwork and sportsmanship are stressed in a supportive learning environment with a coach helping each sailor set his or her individual sailing and racing goals. Interested students should have at least 2 years of the youth program under their belts before they commit to the team.
Cost: $425

MONDAY - THURSDAY, 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM
Session I: June 23 - July 17
Session II: July 21 - Aug 14
Note: No classes will be held on July 4
