Sail Kingston Cove is a non-profit corporation formed in 2015. It is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors dedicated to assuring the program lives up to it’s mission and goals. Overseeing our operations is our Executive Director who has been with us since 2015. In addition to our volunteer Board members, many parents help us each year with special events and fund raisers. If you are interested in volunteering please contact us. We welcome everyone to join in our mission.
Over those years, we taught more than 1,200 kids how to sail. We receive unwavering support from the Port of Kingston, and the Kingston Cove Yacht Club.
At all times, Sail Kingston Cove has at a minimum one fully certified instructor on duty during all sailing camps offered by Sail Kingston Cove. We are always open to anyone 16 years or older to join our program, and work towards full certification as an instructor, and be a part of our sailing community. Sail Kingston Cove provides an opportunity for our instructors to qualify for a Level 1 sailing certification, administered by US Sailing. Once completed, these instructors are encouraged to continue with Sail Kingston Cove to their 18th birthday, at which time they will be fully certified as a small boat instructor.
Located at the Port of Kingston, Sail Kingston Cove operates off a float provided by the Port of Kingston, adjacent to A dock.
You can email us at sailkingstoncove@gmail.com or phone our Executive Director at 360-860-2238. Sail Kingston Cove has a social media presence we encourage you to visit. Visit our Facebook page for a listing of current activities, and share your views.
Camps for these youngsters start each Monday at 9:00AM to 12:00PM, and continue daily at the same time until Friday of the Camp week.
As an introduction to sailing, your young sailor will learn how to put on their life jacket, tie knots, learn games, and get comfortable around the dock. Our certified instructors will be with all the Guppies during the camp, where students will enjoy boat rides, a beach day, and learn about marine life and the boating community.
