Adult Sailing


Scope
The Mission of the IYC Adult Sailing program is to maximize the number of adult sailors at the Club, and to encourage members who do not own boats to sail on our bay. The Adult Sailing Program has two main activities: 1) Adult Sailing Lesson Program, and 2) Adult Sailing Checkout Program. If you are interested in participating in either of these programs, please read below and click onward to find more details. Or you can contact the chair of Adult Boating (Ned Congdon, 925-362-8820).

Equipment
The Club owns and maintains two Flying Scots, CF 3888 CE, "Blue Bonnet", and CF 1389CE, "Banshee", both parked in the yard on trailers in the row of boats closest to the Bay.

Sails are stored in yellow bags kept in a rack next to the safety boat in the Clubhouse. The sails are marked at the tack as follows:
Six Mainsails: 502, May 05, 31 (in blue), 31 (in black), 602, 4092
Five Jibs: May 05, 12-04, 502, 503, 4092

Jib sheets are attached to the jibs. Sometimes the jibs are in the Adult Sailing Locker #55. The Club owns a spinnaker that is stored either in the Pelican locker or in the Adult Sailing Locker.

Sailors must bring and wear their own Coast Guard approved Type III personal flotation devices. Alternatively there are some Mae West style life preservers in the Adult Sailing locker that can be used.

I hope to see you soon out on our beautiful bay!
