Expand Your Horizon!



Oak Orchard Yacht Club offers multiple sessions of Adult Sailing instruction each summer!


Instruction emphasizes on-the-water training with some classroom time for beginning through advanced sailors.



“Our goal is to give adults the confidence and the skills required to help them become life long sailors. The Oak Orchard Sailing community is like a family that is eager to share their passion of water sports to anyone willing to try!"
