CBC offers a variety of sailing lessons that allow our members to experience the beauty and challenge of sailing in upper Narragansett Bay. Although membership to CBC is required to take part in our structured lessons, access to our boats is completely FREE for adults after passing a class or check-out test. "Sailorships" are available for youth who meet eligibility requirements. Qualified adult members (upon lesson completion or check-out test) may sail during open sailing hours subject to weather and equipment availability.
