Keelboats allow you to learn to sail without the fear of capsizing, and usually with several other people on the boat. Learning to sail in self-righting keelboats (or trailer sailers) provides a learning platform that is stable yet responsive. As your skills progress, you will also develop an understanding of each persons role and how teamwork plays a major part of being an effective crew. You should come away with the knowledge and confidence to sail a small boat competently and for those that wish, you can progress to larger boats or participate as crew on a racing boat.

The Spirit of Dana Point is a traditionally built replica of a 1770's privateer schooner used throughout the American Revolution. The ship is 118 feet in length with a rig height of 100 feet and almost 5,000 square feet of sail. On this day, while racing in the Dana Point Harbor Championships, the Spirit of Dana Point was out in 12-14 knots of true wind with gusts to 20 knots! It currently resides at the Ocean Institute in Dana Point, CA.
