Sailing instruction
Learn-to-sail programs for youngsters and adults.
A private yacht club in Newburyport. It operates seasonally from May through October on the Merrimack River and is run by volunteers, with members participating in club operations and care of its buildings and grounds. The club hosts regattas, including the Chet Young Regatta and Rum Run Regatta. It also offers sailing instruction for children and adults through programs that have been operating for more than 60 years. Courses use Catalina 14 sailboats for beginner and intermediate training, with two or three students per boat. Instructors assess students' needs and follow in a chase boat to provide guidance and support safety. Activities include games and competitions to develop boat-handling skills. The sailing school is licensed by the Newburyport Board of Health under Massachusetts recreational camp regulations.
