::: OPENING DAY :::

Hey DCYC Club members!

We need some race committee folks that are familiar with running a race and ONE person per race who is familiar with running Vigilant OR RC will need to be done off of a chase boat.

The DCYC Youth Sailing program may be available (depending on USA health conditions) in Spring 2021 to new or experienced sailors ages 8- 15 (exceptions considered on a case-by-case basis). While this class is open to new sailors, those children with experience are encouraged to apply because they will have an opportunity to improve their existing sailing proficiency. Our sailing coaches are experienced racers and cruisers.

Learn the Basics, Improve Existing Skills

The program focuses on developing and/or improving sailing skills; classes are taught in Optimist Prams, O’pen Bic Skiffs, Laser Radial, and Laser 4.7.

The youth sailors will perfect the basics of rigging and sailing in straight lines on and off the wind; capsize recovery; identifying points of sail, how to leave and return to a dock, wind direction, and sail trim.  They will learn how to start a race and make their way around the race course and will be taught about  the responsibility of caring for the boats and equipment.  Knot tying lessons are part of the curriculum.

A Chance to Sail a Keelboat or two-person dinghy

Sometimes, during the class schedule, the children will have an opportunity to crew on a keelboat or larger dinghy with their coaches to learn how it differs from a one-person dinghy; how to tack a jib using winches; how to steer a keelboat on all points of sail; and how to adjust the main and jib sheets for proper sail trim.

Details, Details…

These are sailing classes during which the primary focus is on learning to sail and/or improving existing sailing skills. It is different from DCYC’s sensational, summer sailing camps which tend be a balance between summertime fun and a relaxed sailing theme. The DCYC facility is located on the scenic shores of Lake Lewisville in Oak Point, Texas. Your child can apply for the 2021 programs on DCYC’s website . Open to DCYC members and non-members.

WELCOME BACK, HOBIE SAILORS!!

The DCYC youth sailing camp is a five-day session available to beginning sailors and to those with existing sailing skills.  Camp is open to DCYC members and non-members subject to availability.  Suggested ages: from 8 to 15. (exceptions considered on a case-by-case basis) Camper must be able to pass DCYC basic swim skills test to attend Sailing Camp.

The Camp Program:   Sailing Camp at DCYC is all about summertime fun with a focus on sailing. Our instructors are skilled dinghy and keelboat racing sailors with junior sailing training experience.  Whilst ample time to enjoy our refreshing pool and engage in sailing camp-themed activities ashore is provided, the instructors will ensure that the on-the-water part of the program focuses on developing sailing skills to include boat handling; seamanship and safety-at-sea. Campers will sail  in boats such as Optimist Prams, Laser, RS Tera, Club 420 and O’pen Bic Skiffs.  The kids will learn how to rig and de-rig the boats, sail away from the dock, and to return safely. Recovery from a capsize is also taught.  The youth sailors will be reminded regularly to liberally re-apply sun block, stay hydrated, encouraged to wear a hat, and take other smart sun-protection precautions. They will learn how to start a race and make their way around a race course.  We’ll attempt to do a group sail on a member’s keelboat. Knot tying practice is included.

Please read the summer camp brochure on DCYC website for full details.
