Sailing Lessons

Sailing Yacht Wiley is Sail Channel Islands primary training boat

Private lessons make the best use of your time. You work on the skills you need and practice until you’re both competent and confident.

Most beginning sailing courses get you ready  for sailing on small lakes, but this is the Pacific. Most times, this part of our ocean is benign, but you have to be ready for the times when she acts up. You also have to have navigation skills to deal with commercial traffic and occasionally tricky anchorages.
