Set Sail This Summer!
Open to Non-Members. Age 7+
Our fun and affordable Sail Canada accredited summer camp offers introductory sailing and advanced racing programs for ages seven and up. Our CANSail certified instructors introduce kids to dinghy sailing fundamentals through games, interactive lessons and of course getting out on the water!
Our learn to sail curriculum covers CANSail levels 1 through 6. For advanced level sailors we have competitive Opti and 420 race programs that travel to regattas around the province and put their skills to the test against sailors from other yacht clubs.
Participants sail on our fleet of Club owned Optimist, SailCube, RS Quest and C420 dinghies. On-water sessions are taught in small groups to ensure quality instruction and safety. Off the water activities include exploring the Toronto Island beaches and neighbouring parks, exciting sailing games, instructional sailing theory and much more! With our convenient downtown Toronto location National Yacht Club is easily accessible by both car and public transportation.
Mission:
To provide safe, affordable, and fun sailing instruction that meets Sail Canada standards and emphasizes performance in sailing. Young sailors will learn the fundamentals for a lifelong participation in the sport.
Background:
Since the National Yacht Club Sailing & Racing School’s inception in 1955 it’s aim has been to produce first-rate sailors through quality instruction and enjoyment of the sport. NYC S&RS alumni have gone on to become CANSail instructors, compete as members of the Ontario Sailing Team, Canadian Sailing Team and at the Olympics.
