WELCOME!
We're
on a Mission...
| ...to provide the finest
sailing
instruction available at any price - something we started doing in
1968. Our family is an award-winning industry leader. We combine
decades of owner-operation with fresh enthusiasm, and we have an enviable
amount of real, hands-on experience.
Teaching aids, location, boat selection, choice of instructors, and experience
all come together in perhaps the most finely developed program in the industry.
Our logos might be goofy,
but our sailing is serious. That's why the woman on the left is singlehanding!
Yes, you'll do that in our learn-to-sail/Basic Keelboat course, Start
Sailingsm.
Sounds intimidating? Don't worry - it's actually fun,
just like our equally effective
Obstacle Coursesm
another NYSC signature. After the course, your two supervised practice
sails
without an instructor on board
leave you ready to truly sail and skipper the boat.
On top of all this, we're
easy to get to by public transit and by car.
Two Universities in Manhattan
- Columbia and Fordham - have their sailing teams train at City Island.
What does that tell you about learning to sail here
instead of Manhattan / NY Harbor / Hudson River?
(See a short
video clip of the Fordham team starting a race!). |

We're a Gold Star/Green Dot Certification Facility
for the American Sailing Association!
|
Browse around this site;
watch a few of our video clips.
You'll quickly learn why
you can't get a better sailing school education - OR value - anywhere else!

|
...for
boats owners, our yacht club offers excellent
mooring facilities with launch service at our City Island anchorage
- one of the most attractive and protected in the region,
and the Island's finest. New York Sailing Center has been a practical
alternative to expensive marina slips and traditional private yacht clubs
for 28 years - with no initiation fees or assessments.
