Learn to Sail Program for 2025

About Our LTS Program

The Deep Cove Yacht Club is a non-profit organization offering internationally recognized learn to sail programs designed by Sail Canada and BC Sailing. We have been offering sailing courses to children in the community for over 25 years! Our emphasis is competence at sea taught in a safe, fun, environment.

All of our instructors are certified and our fleet of sailing dinghies includes Fevas, 420s, Zests, Optimists and Oppis.

We will post a course schedule in January and open registrations to club members 27 January and to the public 3 February 2025, so please watch this page! LTS courses are very popular and spaces go quickly! In addition, race coaching for kids age 8 (birthdays 2017 or earlier) is available, registration opens 17 March and classes start the week of 7th April.

Financial Assistance Available
A few years ago, we set up a bursary fund to help financially disadvantaged children to participate in the summer kids' program. This program will continue in 2025. We can subsidize a portion, but not all, of the fees in the belief that each student should contribute something towards this very exciting summer experience. For more information, please contact our Learn to Sail director Paul Hahn.
