NCS Program Details

The Advanced Women's Sailing Clinic is designed to specifically give adult women, of all ages the opportunity to refine their sailing skills and develop independence on the water at Jetties Sailing Center. Focus is placed on fine-tuning steering and sail trim while developing skills to participate in our open sailing rental program.

Advanced Women's clinic is offered on Monday mornings from 9:00am - 12:00pm. The class will be offered to a small group of women who should be comfortable sailing without an instructor. Women will sail in groups of 2-3 in our Rhodes 19s while instructors will coach from a power boat. In the case of inclement weather there will be a "chalk-talk" and on-land instruction will still take place.

The goal of the Advanced Women's Clinic is to get women to a point where they can independently rent a sailboat from Nantucket Community Sailing and participate in our open sailing rentals. Participants are encouraged to become Jetties Sailing Center members in order to take advantage of rental benefits. The cost of the clinic is $100 per session. Should you need to cancel your enrollment for a clinic, you must do so at least 24hrs before the clinic is scheduled to take place. If you do not cancel and do not attend the clinic, you will still be responsible for payment. There are no refunds issued due to inclement weather. We ask that you be sure to include your cell phone information during registration, so that we may contact you in case of inclement weather. Please note: Registration will open on our Jetties Sailing Center booking software, not through our youth program registration software.
