Have fun learning the basics of sailing through the Minneapolis Park & Recreation Board’s (MPRB) adult and youth sailing lessons. Participants learn the basics of sailing including tacking, gybing, knots, wind, boat rigging, and docking. Everyone gets to skipper the boat and trim the sails of a Lido 14 foot sailboat equipped with both a main and a headsail.

Lesson includes 3-4 classes and each sailboat will have one coach and up to three students. Enrollment is limited to 18 students per class. Life jackets are provided and lessons are held regardless of weather conditions. All lessons are held at Lake Harriet.
