Equipment & Gear

MCSA shall conduct its Private Sailing Lessons Program using keeled sailboats which provide a stable sailing platform in most conditions. However, students may be exposed to spray and wet conditions. Students should supply their own lifejackets, however a limited number of lifejackets will be available. Students must understand that summer evening sailing conditions can be cool. It is therefore recommended that students dress appropriately and bring suitable foul weather gear or other water resistant clothing based upon the conditions.
