Three days of intense training on a Corsair 970.
The Trimaran Sailing Clinic from 180 Marine is designed to provide the essential foundation of sailing skills on a Corsair trimaran. Learn how to sail a Corsair better, or sample what Corsair trimarans are like to sail if you've always wondered.
This private clinic was held in December 2018 in Southern California on a Corsair 970.
Small group clinics are offered as well.
We sailed out of Oceanside, California (just north of San Diego).
Other training clinics will be held throughout the year in Dana Point or San Diego. And we have a clinic planned in September in New Jersey sailing a new Corsair 760R. For more information contact Leslie Gabriel - leslie@180marine.com
We offer clinics as half-day, single-day or two-day sailing clinics, these experiences get the new trimaran owner started out right while building upon previous sailing experience. Using the very latest Corsair trimarans as our teaching platform, we begin with trimaran design and boat dynamics, mast raising and lowering and how to launch either by crane or ramp. As you become more confident with your sailing skills, it’s possible to sail to Catalina Island, 61 miles (53.26 nautical miles) out from Oceanside on the Corsair 970. We wouldn't recommend sailing the Pulse 600 out to Catalina Island unless you really like it athletic!
We also offer training at the location of your choice on your new Corsair trimaran.
Our instruction is extremely comprehensive. We believe strongly that the best way to learn to sail is by actually sailing! And with a maximum of four sailors per boat, all sailors are certain to receive plenty of personal attention. Participants gain extensive hands-on experience, building the sailing skills and knowledge specific to sailing a trimaran.
We’ve been sailing Corsairs and other trimarans for over 20 years, and happy to share our experience.
