CULVER — The Max Yacht Club is sponsoring a no-pressure, instruction-based ladies sailing group that meets on Sundays throughout the summer. The group is for all experience levels — from ladies who’ve never been on a boat to those who have sailed with others and now want to do so themselves.
The group meets on Sunday mornings, gathering at 9:15 am at Benedict’s pier (for those driving, 708 Peru Court). The program runs through August 10th.
You should bring your life jacket. If you do not have a life jacket, contact them before you come, and they can arrange for one. If you feel ready to sail, there are club boats available for use, or join the camaraderie and instruction session, and ride in the Coach boat to listen and learn.
The group will meet regardless of wind conditions. If there is wind, they will sail after the instruction session. Otherwise, we have other learning exercises (e.g., learning hitch knots to tie up boats) and Q&A with our instructors.
This is a “come when you can” and “learn at your level” group, so if one weekend doesn’t work, join another Sunday.
