We will review the skills from Beginning Sailing with an emphasis on improving boat handling skills and refining sail trim.  The importance of balance and tem work will become evident as you learn how to sail backwards and how to maneuver without a rudder using only the sails and the crew weight.  Single-handed sailing and racing will be introduced, time permitting.
