Adult Sailing Classes Eight Bells Mission Bay Yacht Club has developed an Adult Roger K. Patterson Staff Commodore Sailing program designed to meet your needs. Our 1993 coaches are US Sailing certified and we have #2176 classes to suit your busy schedule.

Our program recognizes that not everyone wants to be the next America’s Cup skipper, and we offer a September 26, 2019 range of classes and coaching to suit everyone from the beginning sailor to the advanced racer.

Classes will be taught in a Capri 22 to add comfort and stability to the class. Call us, email, or stop by MBYC to ask questions. We welcome your interest. . We will be offering classes that run every other week for 4 weeks at a time. Each 4 week class will be $200 for the entire 4 week class.

If you are interested in taking the adult sailing class, contact the Junior Sailing Office today by calling 858.488.0501 or emailing us at [email protected]

Registration will be live soon so stay posted for updates!!
