At least one of the instructors for every sail will be a US Coast Guard certified Captain with an active endorsement in CPR/First Aid and New York State Boating Safety certification.
• We provide every child with a well fit type III life jacket and attached whistle. • Life vests are strictly required whenever aboard the boat. • Walkie talkies and vhf radio utilized by staff • Factors affecting water quality are always assessed before choosing to swim. |
Auxiliary Support
We always have ready a rigid inflatable boat (RIB) with outboard engine, allowing instructors and staff to provide acute support to our group on the bay.
Our RIB has a 9.9 hp engine for fast response and increased towing capacity. Propeller safety guard and emergency-off switch dutifully installed on engine. |
