The Storm Trysail Club in association with the Ida Lewis YC and Sail Newport are offering a Jr. Safety at Sea seminar for youth sailors.

This is a great opportunity for youth sailors to get hands on sailing experience aboard “big boats” including J105s, J109s and Swan 42s coached by some of Rhode Island’s finest offshore sailing specialists and instructors and midshipmen from King’s Point US Merchant Marine Academy.

Instruction covering safety and big boat organization will consist of sessions on land and on the water including use of inflatable liferafts and safety equipment, changing sails/reefing, communications and navigation. Sign up at the Sail Newport website.
