 Water Safety is an opportunity to explore the world of sailing … without swimming in the lake! We simulate common on-the-water activities in a controlled, lifeguard supervised environment BEFORE you experience the lake. This technique has proven to increase the competency and confidence of new sailors when encountering everyday hazards on the water. Some exercises you will perform are treading water, swimming with a life jacket, emergency line throwing, swimming out from under a sail and so on.
