An Introduction to Sailing Terms and Skills

March 28th

James Dickie (jwdickie843@spectrum.net) and Debbie Plonski (dlplonski3@aol.co) are

hosting an introduction to and/or refresher course on basic sailing. They will be covering

such things as:

  • Terms: i.e, when is a rope a line and when is it a sheet
  • Responsibilities: what is expected of you as a crew member
  • Big boats vs small boats
  • And much, much more

Whether you have sailed before or are just curious about the sport, come by YCHHI from

6pm to 7pm March 28th. Bring an inquisitive mind and any questions you might have.

Meet others who might want to crew or skippers who might need some crew for the

upcoming sailing season.

The skippers who have agreed to take other members out on their boats for some fun day

sailing are still working on getting their boats ready. The club will send out emails when

we know they are ready to participate and we can get the activity started for 2023.
