Description

Two-day adult sailing classes are offered most weekends from 9 am to 4 pm at Fiddler's Cove Marina. Classes are open to all eligible MWR patrons and sponsored guests. Minimum age requirement is 16 years or older with a parent or guardian.

Class fees per person vary by military affiliation and rank. Dependent fees are calculated at the sponsoring active duty or retiree rate. Pre-registration is required as classes can fill up quickly.

Registration includes boat rental, instruction, and textbooks. Students per boat will be kept to the minimum amount possible in order to maximize learning potential and will range from one to four. Number of students per boat is dependent on the boat size, sailing conditions and the skills being developed in the class. On completion of the course, participants receive a Navy Sailing Qualification Card.

A valid California Boater Card and/or a course completion certificate is highly suggested before attending the first class. This is a free California Safety class required for all boat owners 16 years and older. California Boater Cards and/or course completion certificates will be checked at the start of the first class. A free online course is offered through BoatU.S.. Once the course is complete and an application has been filled out through California State Parks then a card will be sent in the mail to your address. A digital card will be emailed at the completion of the course and is a valid representation of a California Boater Card for this course.

Once you sign-up please stop by Fiddlers Cove Marina boathouse to pick up your study materials. Some preliminary reading will be given before the start of the course.
