SAILING LESSONS

Individuals can learn to sail without attending one of our classes. Certified instructors will teach sailing on the student's boat or another available through the BoatHouse. The student must have a Coast Guard Approved PFD (personal floatation device). Call (405)447-4974 for current rates.

REQUIREMENTS FOR CERTIFICATION

The Basic Sailing Course of the US Sailing Association requires that the students be able to to swim 50 yards and tread water for two minutes. Additionally, there are certain procedures that must be accomplished that can only be done in smaller boats; e.g., capsize recovery. These tasks must be completed separate from above lessons before the student can be certified..
