Master The Waves With The Weekend Sailing Workshops

Do you have an interest in the world of sailing but do not know where to start, or have you imagined yourself becoming a confident sailor? The day is today. Sailing and Boating LLC brings you  Weekend Sailing Workshops, led by Captain Deb Marlor, that are aimed at people who are new to sailing or who want to know practical sailing skills for the water, and want to learn in a friendly and supportive environment.

Our workshops are fun and interactive. Deb Marlor offers a 90-minute session where you get to learn to break free from struggles and obstacles and start living your ocean dream. Learn step-by-step tools and clarity you need to shift your mindset from doubts and limiting beliefs to the life you have always desired.

Who Are These Workshops For?

These courses are usually designed for people who feel stuck whenever they try to achieve their ocean dream, or for someone who feels lost and discouraged when they see others living their ocean dream. These Weekend Sailing Workshops are ideal for:

  • New boat owners
  • Beginners who want real, on-the-water training
  • Future cruisers planning long-distance trips
  • Women interested in building skills and confidence
  • Couples learning to sail together
  • Anyone serious about how to start sailing

Captain Deb has years of experience in the sailing world, professional transformation coach, and has a passion towards people build confidence in the boating world. Her goal is to show a pathway that is located somewhere between the traditional beginning sailing course and the real-world obstacles that each boater will have to face.

What You’ll Learn in a Weekend

This isn’t just theory. Weekend Sailing Workshops are immersive and practical, giving you the skills you can use right away.

Here’s what you’ll cover:

Safety First

Before anything else, you’ll go through critical sailing safety training that includes how to move safely on deck, life jacket use, VHF basics, and emergency preparedness.

Boat Basics & Language

In our hands-on sailing lessons, learn the parts of the boat, the onboard systems, and much more, so you are well-trained just like your other crew members.

Handling the Helm

Sailboat handling techniques, like steering, trimming sails, tacking, jibing, and docking under both sail and power, are practised and hands-on experience.

Navigation and Situational Awareness

Understand the basic concepts of chart reading, weather conditions, and making the right decisions while sailing on your yacht. Once you learn and develop your skills, you become a professional sailor.
