PORTSMOUTH YOUTH SAILING |
Portsmouth Youth Sailing (PYS) aims to provide the children of Portsmouth basic sailing instruction in a safe and fun environment.
The 2010 Summer Season is based out of Sandy Point Beach with instruction to be provided in Optimist Dinghies for 5-14 year old children.
IMPORTANT DATES TO REMEMBER
The PYS Program is full for 2010.
If you would like to be on our mailing list and receive information about registration for next year, please fill out our form.
Courses are half day (AM or PM) camps aimed at 5-14 year olds with approximately 12 children per class. The AM session runs from 9am-12pm, the PM session from 1pm-4pm. Morning sessions are one-week camps geared towards beginners. Afternoon classes are primarily two-week camps for more confident sailors as well as those who have progressed beyond the beginner stage. All children must complete a short swim test prior to sailing alone in boats to gauge their comfort level in the water. Life jackets will be worn for the test.
