If you want to be a sailor this fall, you still have a chance. You will need to get a parental permission to LCDR Clark, and show up for the next classes.
Our next class is guaranteed to be fun. We will be holding capsize practice at the Twin Rivers YMCA. Here is what it was like (link) last spring.
Class meets immediately after school, every Monday. We will only have 10 classes and 2 of those have already met! You should study these brief pages: Terminology- parts of the boat (link), then study Terminology- Directions (link), then follow up with Rigging the Boat (link), because this is material we have already covered in class. A written assignment has been handed out, and if you missed it, you can pick it up in the Commander's office or from the Sailing Squad cadet leader.
Then, to truly be up to speed, check out the Capsize Drill (link). You may need to carry this out for real!
