Dinghy Division

A great inexpensive way to learn and practice sailing skills. Club members (including their families) can use the 420's all season long for a flat $30 Annual Fee. Start off with joining 19WCYC Membership and then take our “Introduction to Sailing and Familiarization” program (approx. 2hrs theory followed by a scheduled Practical/Checkout Sail).  There is no cost to members for our dinghy courses! 

Becoming familiar with related links will make training more efficient.   We normally announce training opportunities on the Yacht Club email updates.  Members are added automatically to the email list each year, however, if you find that you are not getting the emails, please let the Communications Officer know.
