Try sailing this summer!

DEEP RIVER - The Deep River Yacht and Tennis Club offers a summer sailing program of instruction and fun racing for youth and adults.

Daily (9 a.m. to 4 p.m.) junior sailing classes for youth aged 8 - 17 start July 9 and run each week until August 24. A supervised lunch break is available, helpful for out-of-town students.

Weekend adult sailing classes consist of 12 hours of instruction in a classroom and on the water.

Participants have a choice of weekends: July 14-15 or July 21-22. All classes are taught to the Sail Canada curriculum under the direction of qualified instructors, with safety boats present at all times.

We also offer Casual Sailing Monday evenings at 5 p.m., when club members and sailing school students can take out a club dinghy with instructors and a safety boat in attendance.

Dinghy races for sailors of all skill levels, with their own boat or club boats, are held every Tuesday evening. Rigging starts at 5:00 PM with the first race at 6 p.m.
