A class for all ability ranges in sailing will probably be supplied on the Watkins Glen Yacht Club in May.
According to a group announcement, seasoned skippers will lead the course. The registration deadline is May 1.
The six-week course will happen from 6:30 to eight:30 p.m. Wednesdays and is tentatively scheduled for May 6, May 13, May 20, May 27, June 17 and July 1.
The Watkins Glen Yacht Club is positioned past the Clute Park Community Center.
On-the-water classes are deliberate for six:30-9 p.m. Fridays on the Watkins Glen Village Marina. The tentative dates are May 29, June 5 and June 26.
The value is $125 for ABC-FLX members, $170 for Watkins Glen Yacht Club and Finger Lakes Yacht Club members, and $200 for non-members.
A digital textbook is included within the class price, whereas a printed copy is out there for an extra $15. Discounts can be found for a second member of the family taking the class and sharing a textbook.
Instructors describe the class as “open to complete beginners or experienced seafarers who want to learn something new or meet other boaters,” according to the announcement.
