  This session is postponed until further notice due to COVID-19. Please refer instead to CANSAil 1/2 B which will start in July.

  At TISC we're proud of our comprehensive learn to sail course. Taught by certified Sail Canada instructors the CANSail programming means lots of time on the water in a safe, fun and active learning environment, with relatively less time spent in a classroom. Sailors learn the skills and enter into fun and challenging experiences suited to their stage of development. The programming is designed to get - and keep - sailors excited about sailing for life! CANSail is designed to be a set of progressive learn to sail standards focused on providing sailors with a solid foundation of core skills. It allows sailors to learn and progress in any type of boat and consolidates key skills and solid experiences before adding complex skills.

  CANSail 1 teaches sailors the fundamental sailing skills including basic sheeting, steering, and boat handling on all points of sail. Sailors can sail within defined boundaries set by an instructor.

  CANSail 2 teaches sailors to adjust their bodies and boats for changes in direction and wind speed while sailing, and to perform boat-handling maneuvers in a controlled manner while in a controlled setting.

  • Open to members only, this CANSail 1/2 course takes place over 6 full days
  • Completion of CANSail 1/2 + a few additional sailing skill demonstration + boat repairs gives you a TISC Helms status
  • Certificates are awarded by Sail Canada
  • We limit our CANSail 1/2 course to 12 students
  • Tuition is $160.00 + HST; all sales are final for courses
  • Start times indicate the tender departure times students must take to the island.
  • Dates are subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances, such as inclement weather. Whenever possible in these cases, on-land instruction will be substituted. 
  • Makeup date for this class is Saturday, August 1, 2020 - subject to change.
