The aim of this course is to give competent sailors with little experience the confidence to get back on the water safely. It is also an occasion to get familiar with the RS Quest, our new beginner sailboat.

If you feel really rusty and would like a more thorough course to return on the water, we encourage you to register for a Beginner Sailing course.

Prerequisites:

registered as a UBC Sailing Club member for the 2023-2024 season
registered as a JSCA member for the 2023-2024 season
previously passed our beginner course
wetsuit

Note: If this class is full, you are welcome to join our waitlist on this Signal app group.

Course content:
- RS Quest rigging
- Review of procedures: down the ramp, launching, landing
- Basic handling: sail trim on all points of sail, tacking, gybing, heave-to
- Safety: capsize/turtle recovery including scooping recovery, man overboard

If you are unsure if this is the right class for you, feel free to contact our head instructor at headinstructor@ubcsailing.org.
