introducing sailing to kids aged 7 to 12. Exposing them to the Sun and the sea
in a safe and exciting new environment, where they will build confidence and
independence through fun lessons and games. In this program, the kids will
learn to sail in pairs on an optimist boat, forge teamwork, discover how boats
