There is no typical day at NOSA as each day is filled with fun and adventure. Students will be exposed to a thriving environment that builds concentration and team work skills. There is just so much to do, we can barely fit in all in one summer! Remember, these operate all summer long. The whole summer plan includes a variety of activities centered around sailing. Each week something new will happen! Be sure to book early for one, two or more week sessions.

Sailing specifics
Students will start out by becoming familiar with the boat and basic terminology. On-land lessons will prepare each student before they head out to the course. Each day, students are required to rig the boats and collect on the dock for a daily briefing of the day’s objectives. These briefings make the students aware of how the wind, weather and waves are changing each day and how to determine if it is a suitable day to sail. Once on the water and familiar with the handling, each person is taught how to navigate around a course and through the wind. Different courses will be set up each day to build on different skills and handling techniques. Although on-land theory lessons are taught before students venture out onto the water, major emphasis is concentrated to on-water skills.
