Member Classes

Open Sail Camp (Ages 7 to 16)

Times: Monday-Thursday 1 pm-4 pm.

Program Cost: $160 Members/$200 Non-Members

Sailboats used: Opti, Sunfish and 420

​

In recognition of the number of families that vacation at Diamond Lake around the

fourth of July this new class is being offered to encourage youth sailing on the lake. All

classes are focused on fun and social interchange as opposed to strictly racing. In this

class, youth sailors learn the skills to sail an Opti, sunfish single handed or a 420, a

two-person boat, with another sailor.  They will interact with the instructors both on

the water and classroom. On shore they will be taught how to correctly rig their

sailboat , launch and then sail the craft. Our young sailors can take this class multiple

times and will be divided based on skill levels while working with the instructors to

improve their sailing abilities.

 

All students will always wear life jackets.  Instructors, either in the student's boat or on

a safety boat, accompany the students.  All instructors are experienced sailors.  All

have learned to sail in the DLYC Sailing School.

​

The DLYC is offering a limited number of scholarships for youths who need financial

assistance to attend. Please contact Louis Csokasy at lrcsokasy@comcast.net or Jackie
