Crew-U is the perfect introduction to sailing for beginners, teaching the essential skills needed to crew on a racing sailboat. The course covers the basics—learning the parts of a sailboat, how it works, and fundamental sailing maneuvers like tacking, jibing, sail trim, basic knots and teamwork. No prior experience is needed, just a willingness to learn! By the end of Crew-U, you'll be ready to step aboard with confidence and contribute as a valuable member of any sailing crew.
COST: $60 (includes seminar training book and refreshments)
Join us for the some harrowing tales of man overboard survivor, Rick Carroll, along with some training on man overboard prep procedures. In addition, we will have Dr. Susan Girois, Director of the Norfolk Public Health Department (also Jammin crew member) give us some pointers on First Aid issues that we might encounter on the water.
We will hold a 50/50 raffle again: Tickets are five dollars each, cash only. Half the pot goes to the raffle winner and half goes to BBSA to support room and meeting costs.
