Make This the Year that You Learn to Sail

 Sailing is fun on so many levels.  There is an exhilarating, challenging and competitive side as well as a relaxing, calming and spiritual side – it’s whatever you want it to be.  Sailing is an activity you can enjoy alone or with your family and friends, and you can enjoy it for your entire lifetime.  Whether you are a landlubber or a seasoned old salt, the Mariner Sailing School is the answer to your sailing goals.

 Founded in 1975, we are the largest full time Sailing School in the Washington, D.C. area. Our school is owned and operated by sailors. 

When comparing schools in the area, ask about class sizes,  free practice time, and 1/2 price weekday rentals. Our 3:1 student to instructor ratio, beautiful location and great boats are just a few reasons to sail with us.  With a dedicated staff of people oriented, professional sailors, we welcome the opportunity to show you just how much fun you can have sailing. 

The 2012 season begins in early April with new classes forming every weekend. Monday - Friday courses are offered every week through the end of October.  Our summer Youth Sailing Camp is just around the corner, and it is an excellent way to safely and confidently introduce your children to the sport. Instructor to student ratio is 6:1.

It is generally advised to reserve your class 2 to 3 weeks in advance to avoid disappointment. We look forward to sailing with you soon!
