The Ephraim Yacht Club offers private sailing lessons by appointment. This is a great way to get a lot of instruction in a short period of time. Private lessons might be for you if:
- Group lessons do not fit your schedule;
- You want to learn at an accelerated pace;
- You want intensive instruction to catch up to the other students in your age range;
- You want to take a lesson together with specific friends or family members;
- You want intensive instruction in a specific sailing skill; or
- You feel more comfortable in a one-on-one situation with an instructor.
Private lessons are available to both adults and juniors. Up to four persons can take a private lesson together. The pace and content of private lessons are geared to the individual student(s) and can be taught in any of the EYC’s fleets, Flying Scots, 420s, Optimists, or Lasers.
Private lessons are available by appointment. To schedule a private lesson, contact the club director at [email protected], or phone the EYC (920) 854-7107, or stop by the EYC during open hours.
Online signup is not available for private lessons.
