Rocky Point Sailing Association has completed the Scout Indemnification and can provide sail and canoe programs for youth ages 5 and up.
Programs run from April through August. Full day (6hr) and Half Day (3hr) sessions are offered. Programs can be catered to the needs of each group: we offer single day intro-to-sailing programs, as well as multi-day programs specially developed to cover Scouts Canada Sailing Skills Competencies.


Sailing
Scouts acquire an understanding of ocean sailing conditions and develop a foundation for other water activities and basic water safety. Scouts will learn how to safely interact with our local coastal environment in a fun, safe, and inclusive way.
Participants will sail on small sailing dinghies that each have 2-3 scouts aboard. Skills covered include:
- Naming each part of the boat
- Figure-8, Bowline, and Reef Knots, and how to use them to rig a sailboat
- How to act safely on and around cold water
- How to wear a PFD
- How to steer a boat and control sails with a team
- And most importantly, how to have fun on the water with friends!
