Just as with our other courses, we put our own particular emphasis on things with Start Racing.sm  You'll get a very solid foundation in basic skills peculiar to sailboat racing, such as crowded starts and mark roundings, passing or remaining in close proximity to other vessels, and the like.  The boathandling skills you'll learn will serve you well in other areas of sailing, too.

For realism, once the basic foundation is laid we'll start a real regatta!  In addition to instruction and drilling, all actual races will be scored and awards will be given at the end of the series.
