Wet and wild: Watersport adventures in Vancouver
Macsailing’s certified instructors offer learn-to-sail introductory courses at the Jericho Sailing Centre. The 24-foot keelboats are lighter and easier to handle for those who are just learning the ropes (so to speak). For advanced sailors, the school also offers competitive racing courses to prepare for regattas and cruising courses that cover anchoring, navigation and emergency procedures. Youth and adult lessons are available via private instruction, summer camps, multi-course packages or on a drop-in basis. There are also a variety of family-friendly programs, including catamaran tours and paddleboarding adventures for parents and teens.
