Outcomes
Over the course of the program, youth will build the skills and confidence needed to crew an RS Quest Dinghy and sail with that crew without support.
This is a tiered program. Kids of like skills and age are paired together to get the most growth relevant to their needs.
As they grow in their skills they will move on to racing and other more challenging sailing objectives (rescues, man over board, single person sailing) with their crew.

What's next
Naturally once your child has completed Out There 1, 2, and 3 competencies they will move over to Holywell Sailing Squadron and sail with the Out There Fleet on Saturdays 8:30am - 11:30am, where they will learn about weather and tides, stronger winds, and rules of the road around other boats.
