Atlanta Yacht Club Sailing Classes

Are you ready to experience the fun and excitement of sailing? Maybe you have previously sailed with a friend or have learning to sail on your bucket list. Perhaps your child has expressed interest in learning to sail.  Sailing is a fantastic outdoor activity for all ages. Whether you're racing or simply enjoying the breeze, sailing on Lake Allatoona offers a wonderful way to spend the day with fellow enthusiasts. Sailing is lifelong sport that requires a knowledge of wind and sails to make the boat move. 

A primary focus at Atlanta Yacht Club is teaching people how to sail and how to sail better.  The Club offers sailing lessons for ages 9 through adult.  We are fortunate to have SailATL to provide certified sailing instructors and other dedicated volunteers to conduct sailing classes for juniors and adults. The emphasis is on water safety, boat handling, race tactics and -- not incidentally -- fun!

The club owns and maintains a fleet of Optimist, 420 and Flying Scot sailboats to use for teaching, as well as several utility craft for support and safety. Onshore sessions are conducted in our clubhouse followed by time on the water.
