North Star Camp for Boys

Sailing

North Star's waterfront would not be complete without our fleet of sailboats. Sailing truly exemplifies our objective based programming as campers are able to progress through the various levels of sailing and learn how to sail on our different boats. As beginners, campers will learn the essential basics, how to tie knots, rig and de-rig boats and care for equipment. They gain the hands on experience that has them sailing in no time.

We teach and sail on a variety of boats. Our four Barnettes and four mini-skows are smaller boats that allow campers to sail either by themselves or with one other. Our two X-boats are larger, four person boats that has campers sailing with larger groups. More experienced sailers use our Catamaran, a favorite on the program.
