Please note: It usually takes four weeks of instruction to receive each bronze level. Students must successfully demonstrate all of the required skills prior to completing the level. Weather and Wind conditions may limit the amount of on water time available to demonstrate the prescribed skills and is beyond the control of the sailing school. Students are encouraged to sign up for four weeks at a time so as to build on the sailing knowledge needed to achieve these more advanced levels. Two-week sessions are offered to accommodate busy summer schedules and for those who are keen to maintain their interest in recreational sailing. Please understand it will take most students longer to achieve their bronze levels when they enroll for only two weeks a summer.
Program Hours: The Sailing School operates Monday through Friday from 9am to 4pm (including the July 1st Holiday & August Civic Holiday Monday). Students may be dropped off after 8:45am and picked up until 4:15pm with supervision provided by our staff during this 15-minute window before and after formal program hours. Supervised extended hours are available from 8:00am to 5:00pm. The cost is $40 per week. Please contact Ed Billing, Sailing School Director, directly to arrange extended hours of supervision for your child(ren). Should you need extended hours beyond the 8am to 5pm window, alternate hours will be considered on an individual basis. Arrangements should be made through the Sailing School Director. Please do not leave your child unattended at the Sailing School facilities or on the Collins Bay Marina property.

See a slide Show from the 2004/2005/2006 Sailing School Whether you're 8 or 80 - come out and experience two of Kingston's best assets - great wind and water. Collins Bay Yacht Club Sailing School offers an ideal location for beginner sailors and those wanting to refresh their skills on the sheltered waters of Collins Bay in the city's west end. We offer two week summer camps for youth age 8 to 17, as well as four week evening sessions for adults in June, July and August. Our Canadian Yachting Association certified instructors take each student through the basics of sailing including rigging a boat, points of sail, rules of the water and general sailing safety. Students, both youth and adult, work at their own pace toward Canadian Yachting Association national "Learn to Sail" standards - White Sail I, II & III. Our more advanced sailors can pursue their sailing interests in our Bronze IV & V program which teaches them about tuning a boat, sailing in stronger winds, advanced sailing theory, as well as the use of spinnakers.
Our Fleet:
CBYC is committed to providing the highest standard of dinghy sail training and our policy as a not-for-profit organization is to invest revenues into new equipment. We pride ourselves on the quality of our fleet. New 420 this year bringing our fleet up to 3 New Hunter 140 in 2008 New Hunter 140 in 2007 New in 2006 was the exciting Hunter 146. (Being retired and currently for sale, Contact for more Information.) In 2005, we retired our Laser 2's and purchased two new Club 420's for the Bronze program. The preferred dinghy for advanced levels CBYC's sailing school fleet also includes six Hunter 140's purchased in 2002 and 2003 and 2004 and 2007. These boats are ideal for introducing both youth and adults to the fun and freedom of sailing. We also purchased a new chase boat and motor for the instructors in 2005. This brings our on water coaching fleet to three boats. For our youth program we have three or four students in a boat rotating through the various tasks involved with sailing a boat. Like most sailing schools, CBYC firmly believes students learn best from hands-on instruction. For our adult programme, two or three students is the norm for each boat.
