Prerequisite: Basic Cruising 1 or equivalent experience on a 35’-42’ cruising sailboat as skipper and crew. Participants must be at least 18 years of age and able to swim 50 yards. Student eligibility will be verified by staff upon registration.
Discover the world of cruising aboard our Catalina 42 Betty. Your weekend starts off with an overview of safety gear and procedures. You will then get underway and experience a full day aboard Betty as you cross the San Pedro Channel. Along the way, this course answers the practical questions you have about navigating your way to Catalina. After arriving at Catalina, you will anchor near Emerald Bay for the evening. Saturday will be spent working our way down east towards Avalon, anchoring both bow and stern and with a single anchor off the bow as we tour the best of the north side anchorages. Sunday we will navigate our way home to Newport. Crew members participate in all aspects of boat handling including steering, navigation, sail handling, log keeping, anchoring, and cleanup.
Class size: Min 4 – Max 5 students
