PMYC Sailing School 2026 | For the FUN of Sailing

Laser Class

Sailors will learn to apply their sailing and racing skills to the single‑handed Laser, focusing on skippering with confidence and control. The class emphasizes advanced boat‑handling, including refining roll tacks, improving gybes, and managing all boat controls for speed and balance. Sailors will continue expanding their racing skills while developing the awareness and precision needed to handle a Laser in a variety of conditions.

Class size is limited to six students. Please add your sailor to the waitlist, as we make every effort to accommodate interested students. Questions: Sailing School Registration
