WHO ARE ENSIGN EXPLORERS?
Ensign Explorers is a fun, safe introduction to sailing for first-time or newer sailors ages 7-9. With an instructor always on board, sailors will build confidence as they learn basic sailing skills in a small-group setting. The class combines education with fun, featuring playful games and swimming off the boat. Designed to make sailing accessible and exciting, this summer camp provides the ideal introduction to the world of sailing. 

WHAT’S AN ENSIGN?
The 22-foot Ensign Keelboat is an ideal boat for learning. Its stability and easy handling make it perfect for young sailors to feel comfortable on the water.

MORE DETAILS:
We place up to eight sailors per boat with an instructor, ensuring every child feels safe and supported while learning. Kids can sign up alone or with friends and will sail together in the same boat. If your kiddo is ready for a full day at the lake learning on different types of boats, you are welcome to sign up for the Opti half-day session in the morning and Ensign Explorer in the afternoon. MSC staff will eat lunch with the kids between sessions. 

It is not guaranteed that we will get out on the water each day of the session. On days when the wind is too high to be on the water safely, we play games and learn on shore.

WHAT’S NEXT?
After taking this course, sailors who are ready to go out in their own boat can sign up for Opti Explorers.
