Adult Sailing Lessons - Adult Learn to Sail Lessons 2025
The adult sailing program is for Cohasset residents who are at least 18 years old. CSC offers 2 levels of instruction: Learn to Sail and Adult Refresher classes.Learn to SailThe Cohasset Sailing Club’s beginner-friendly Learn to Sail program is for those who are new to the sport or returning after a break. Our experienced instructors will teach you the basics of sailing, and provide hands on sailing experience as you take out a 14’ Quest as part of a small crew. Quests - the same boats used in our youth programs - are wide and forgiving, making them ideal for learning. The program consists of eight sessions, conveniently scheduled on Saturdays to accommodate your availability. The first four lessons, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, are designed to take advantage of calmer morning winds, making it easier for beginners to learn. The following four sessions, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, will expose you to moderately stronger winds, preparing you for a variety of sailing conditions. By the end of these sessions, you’ll be equipped to confidently navigate Cohasset’s inner and outer harbors, either solo or with friends and family, enjoying the scenic beauty from the water.Adult RefresherThe Cohasset Sailing Club’s Adult Refresher Course is for those who have completed the Learn to Sail course or who have sailed previously but haven't been on the water recently. This course is designed to reacquaint you with the fundamentals of sailing and update your skills in a supportive and practical environment. Our experienced instructors will be on hand to assist you and/or your group of friends on how to rig a Quest, the same boats used in our youth program, and be there as needed, either on the boat, trailing behind in a whaler or keeping an eye on you from land. You may register and join only the class dates that you wish to attend. Instructors will tailor the course to the abilities of the students present on that day providing near-private lessons with a small group of students. Beginning July 9th and ending July 27th, sessions will be held every Wednesday from 5:30 to 7:00 pm and every Sunday from 1:30 to 3:00 pm . The goal is to provide you with as many sessions as you need to pass the Helmsman Test to take out the Club’s Quests on your own or with friends and family as well as feel confident crewing on larger day sailers.For more information or questions: adultsailing@cohassetsailingclub.org
You must be able to swim 100 meters and tread water for 10 minutes without help. You will be asked to confirm this in the registration process.
Every participant needs a USCG certified PDF (personal flotation device) and closed toed shoes for each class.

Member BenefitA dinghy is a great way to enjoy the harbor, ocean and beaches. Cohasset Sailing Club offers slips to safely and conveniently dock your dinghy.A CSC dock slip is a CSC member-only benefit. You must be a member in good standing to renew your rental, to apply for one or to hold a position on the Waiting List.Availability and FeeYou must be a 2024 Dock Space holder to register for a dock space for 2025. If you were not a dock space holder in 2024, you may register for the wait list. If you registered in error and paid for a dock space and harbor fee, your payment will be refunded. Slip availability varies from year to year depending upon renewal trends. On average, there are just a few spaces that become available. The following are required to rent a dock space at the CSC; ALL MUST PAY: Dock Space Fee - $850 and CSC Membership Fee - $450The fees that are due are determined according to your individual circumstance:*For boats with engines/non mooring holders: Harbor Fee** - $108 *Mooring Holder - boat with engine Harbor Fee** - $75 - (hold a mooring in Cohasset Harbor)*Boats with no engine do not pay Harbor or Mooring fee all of which must be paid in full before April 30. *Most dock space holders fall into the $108 Harbor fee category as only a handful of dock space holders also hold a mooring in the Harbor.**As a service to our dock space holding members who have a boat with an engine, CSC collects the $108 or $75 harbor fee at the time of your online registration and issues payment to the Town of Cohasset on your behalf. All boats with an engine must pay this fee.Assignment and Maintenance ProcedureExisting slip holders are able to renew their slips from year to year by registering and paying for membership, dock space and harbor fee by April 30. No late dock space registration/payment will be accepted. The space will be reassigned to the next member listed as #1 on the waiting list.Slip numbers and positions are assigned by the Dock Slip Coordinator. The outside spaces are more user-friendly than are the inner spaces. As a consequence, as outer slips become available, existing slip-holders can be shifted or re-assigned to these more favorable locations.CSC is the sole and final authority in providing a slip, determining space assignments, dock space availability, and by applying or holding a dock space, members agree that all CSC decisions are final. We reserve the right to change the policy at any time and without prior notice.Waiting List ProcedureThere is a members waiting list to be fair to those who continue to support the club year after year and who wish to have a dinghy at the club docks.This publicly posted waiting list of members will be maintained by the club on this website. It establishes a ranking of slip applicants from which available slips are assigned. Those not obtaining a slip at the beginning of the new season will be kept on the waiting list in the current order as long as their memberships are maintained without lapse. You must be a member to hold a spot on the waiting list each year. As dock slips become available the name in the top position on the waiting list will be notified.Dinghy Requirements and RestrictionsMaximum 12` length, 5` 6“ beam. No aluminum. Oversize boats will be removed.Engines must be kept covered if in the upright position. If found upright, the uncovered engine will be put in the down position by club staff .Note to all 2024 dock space holdersYour dock space will be renewed for 2025 only when YOU REGISTER on this website and your membership, dock space and Harbor fees are paid in full by April 30, 2025.Our dock space coordinator will send your slip assignment and sticker via mail.For those interested in a dock space, you must be a registered member and pay the annual membership fee to remain on the wait list.

Adult Sailing Lessons - Adult Learn to Sail Lessons 2025
The adult sailing program is for Cohasset residents who are at least 18 years old. CSC offers 2 levels of instruction: Learn to Sail and Adult Refresher classes.Learn to SailThe Cohasset Sailing Club’s beginner-friendly Learn to Sail program is for those who are new to the sport or returning after a break. Our experienced instructors will teach you the basics of sailing, and provide hands on sailing experience as you take out a 14’ Quest as part of a small crew. Quests - the same boats used in our youth programs - are wide and forgiving, making them ideal for learning. The program consists of eight sessions, conveniently scheduled on Saturdays to accommodate your availability. The first four lessons, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, are designed to take advantage of calmer morning winds, making it easier for beginners to learn. The following four sessions, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, will expose you to moderately stronger winds, preparing you for a variety of sailing conditions. By the end of these sessions, you’ll be equipped to confidently navigate Cohasset’s inner and outer harbors, either solo or with friends and family, enjoying the scenic beauty from the water.Adult RefresherThe Cohasset Sailing Club’s Adult Refresher Course is for those who have completed the Learn to Sail course or who have sailed previously but haven't been on the water recently. This course is designed to reacquaint you with the fundamentals of sailing and update your skills in a supportive and practical environment. Our experienced instructors will be on hand to assist you and/or your group of friends on how to rig a Quest, the same boats used in our youth program, and be there as needed, either on the boat, trailing behind in a whaler or keeping an eye on you from land. You may register and join only the class dates that you wish to attend. Instructors will tailor the course to the abilities of the students present on that day providing near-private lessons with a small group of students. Beginning July 9th and ending July 27th, sessions will be held every Wednesday from 5:30 to 7:00 pm and every Sunday from 1:30 to 3:00 pm . The goal is to provide you with as many sessions as you need to pass the Helmsman Test to take out the Club’s Quests on your own or with friends and family as well as feel confident crewing on larger day sailers.For more information or questions: adultsailing@cohassetsailingclub.org
You must be able to swim 100 meters and tread water for 10 minutes without help. You will be asked to confirm this in the registration process.
Every participant needs a USCG certified PDF (personal flotation device) and closed toed shoes for each class.

Dock Space - Dock Space 2025
Member BenefitA dinghy is a great way to enjoy the harbor, ocean and beaches. Cohasset Sailing Club offers slips to safely and conveniently dock your dinghy.A CSC dock slip is a CSC member-only benefit. You must be a member in good standing to renew your rental, to apply for one or to hold a position on the Waiting List.Availability and FeeYou must be a 2024 Dock Space holder to register for a dock space for 2025. If you were not a dock space holder in 2024, you may register for the wait list. If you registered in error and paid for a dock space and harbor fee, your payment will be refunded. Slip availability varies from year to year depending upon renewal trends. On average, there are just a few spaces that become available. The following are required to rent a dock space at the CSC; ALL MUST PAY: Dock Space Fee - $850 and CSC Membership Fee - $450The fees that are due are determined according to your individual circumstance:*For boats with engines/non mooring holders: Harbor Fee** - $108 *Mooring Holder - boat with engine Harbor Fee** - $75 - (hold a mooring in Cohasset Harbor)*Boats with no engine do not pay Harbor or Mooring fee all of which must be paid in full before April 30. *Most dock space holders fall into the $108 Harbor fee category as only a handful of dock space holders also hold a mooring in the Harbor.**As a service to our dock space holding members who have a boat with an engine, CSC collects the $108 or $75 harbor fee at the time of your online registration and issues payment to the Town of Cohasset on your behalf. All boats with an engine must pay this fee.Assignment and Maintenance ProcedureExisting slip holders are able to renew their slips from year to year by registering and paying for membership, dock space and harbor fee by April 30. No late dock space registration/payment will be accepted. The space will be reassigned to the next member listed as #1 on the waiting list.Slip numbers and positions are assigned by the Dock Slip Coordinator. The outside spaces are more user-friendly than are the inner spaces. As a consequence, as outer slips become available, existing slip-holders can be shifted or re-assigned to these more favorable locations.CSC is the sole and final authority in providing a slip, determining space assignments, dock space availability, and by applying or holding a dock space, members agree that all CSC decisions are final. We reserve the right to change the policy at any time and without prior notice.Waiting List ProcedureThere is a members waiting list to be fair to those who continue to support the club year after year and who wish to have a dinghy at the club docks.This publicly posted waiting list of members will be maintained by the club on this website. It establishes a ranking of slip applicants from which available slips are assigned. Those not obtaining a slip at the beginning of the new season will be kept on the waiting list in the current order as long as their memberships are maintained without lapse. You must be a member to hold a spot on the waiting list each year. As dock slips become available the name in the top position on the waiting list will be notified.Dinghy Requirements and RestrictionsMaximum 12` length, 5` 6“ beam. No aluminum. Oversize boats will be removed.Engines must be kept covered if in the upright position. If found upright, the uncovered engine will be put in the down position by club staff .Note to all 2024 dock space holdersYour dock space will be renewed for 2025 only when YOU REGISTER on this website and your membership, dock space and Harbor fees are paid in full by April 30, 2025.Our dock space coordinator will send your slip assignment and sticker via mail.For those interested in a dock space, you must be a registered member and pay the annual membership fee to remain on the wait list.

Adult Sailing Lessons - Adult Learn to Sail Lessons 2025
The adult sailing program is for Cohasset residents who are at least 18 years old. CSC offers 2 levels of instruction: Learn to Sail and Adult Refresher classes.Learn to SailThe Cohasset Sailing Club’s beginner-friendly Learn to Sail program is for those who are new to the sport or returning after a break. Our experienced instructors will teach you the basics of sailing, and provide hands on sailing experience as you take out a 14’ Quest as part of a small crew. Quests - the same boats used in our youth programs - are wide and forgiving, making them ideal for learning. The program consists of eight sessions, conveniently scheduled on Saturdays to accommodate your availability. The first four lessons, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, are designed to take advantage of calmer morning winds, making it easier for beginners to learn. The following four sessions, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, will expose you to moderately stronger winds, preparing you for a variety of sailing conditions. By the end of these sessions, you’ll be equipped to confidently navigate Cohasset’s inner and outer harbors, either solo or with friends and family, enjoying the scenic beauty from the water.Adult RefresherThe Cohasset Sailing Club’s Adult Refresher Course is for those who have completed the Learn to Sail course or who have sailed previously but haven't been on the water recently. This course is designed to reacquaint you with the fundamentals of sailing and update your skills in a supportive and practical environment. Our experienced instructors will be on hand to assist you and/or your group of friends on how to rig a Quest, the same boats used in our youth program, and be there as needed, either on the boat, trailing behind in a whaler or keeping an eye on you from land. You may register and join only the class dates that you wish to attend. Instructors will tailor the course to the abilities of the students present on that day providing near-private lessons with a small group of students. Beginning July 9th and ending July 27th, sessions will be held every Wednesday from 5:30 to 7:00 pm and every Sunday from 1:30 to 3:00 pm . The goal is to provide you with as many sessions as you need to pass the Helmsman Test to take out the Club’s Quests on your own or with friends and family as well as feel confident crewing on larger day sailers.For more information or questions: adultsailing@cohassetsailingclub.org
You must be able to swim 100 meters and tread water for 10 minutes without help. You will be asked to confirm this in the registration process.
Every participant needs a USCG certified PDF (personal flotation device) and closed toed shoes for each class.

You must be a member in good standing to renew your rental, to apply for one or to hold a position on the Waiting List.Availability and FeeYou must be a 2024 Dock Space holder to register for a dock space for 2025. If you were not a dock space holder in 2024, you may register for the wait list. If you registered in error and paid for a dock space and harbor fee, your payment will be refunded. Slip availability varies from year to year depending upon renewal trends. On average, there are just a few spaces that become available. The following are required to rent a dock space at the CSC; ALL MUST PAY: Dock Space Fee - $850 and CSC Membership Fee - $450The fees that are due are determined according to your individual circumstance:*For boats with engines/non mooring holders: Harbor Fee** - $108 *Mooring Holder - boat with engine Harbor Fee** - $75 - (hold a mooring in Cohasset Harbor)*Boats with no engine do not pay Harbor or Mooring fee all of which must be paid in full before April 30. *Most dock space holders fall into the $108 Harbor fee category as only a handful of dock space holders also hold a mooring in the Harbor.**As a service to our dock space holding members who have a boat with an engine, CSC collects the $108 or $75 harbor fee at the time of your online registration and issues payment to the Town of Cohasset on your behalf. All boats with an engine must pay this fee.Assignment and Maintenance ProcedureExisting slip holders are able to renew their slips from year to year by registering and paying for membership, dock space and harbor fee by April 30. No late dock space registration/payment will be accepted. The space will be reassigned to the next member listed as #1 on the waiting list.Slip numbers and positions are assigned by the Dock Slip Coordinator. The outside spaces are more user-friendly than are the inner spaces. As a consequence, as outer slips become available, existing slip-holders can be shifted or re-assigned to these more favorable locations.CSC is the sole and final authority in providing a slip, determining space assignments, dock space availability, and by applying or holding a dock space, members agree that all CSC decisions are final. We reserve the right to change the policy at any time and without prior notice.Waiting List ProcedureThere is a members waiting list to be fair to those who continue to support the club year after year and who wish to have a dinghy at the club docks.This publicly posted waiting list of members will be maintained by the club on this website.

Adult Sailing Lessons - Adult Refresher Wednesday 2025 - 1
The adult sailing program is for Cohasset residents who are at least 18 years old. CSC offers 2 levels of instruction: Learn to Sail and Adult Refresher classes.Learn to SailThe Cohasset Sailing Club’s beginner-friendly Learn to Sail program is for those who are new to the sport or returning after a break. Our experienced instructors will teach you the basics of sailing, and provide hands on sailing experience as you take out a 14’ Quest as part of a small crew. Quests - the same boats used in our youth programs - are wide and forgiving, making them ideal for learning. The program consists of eight sessions, conveniently scheduled on Saturdays to accommodate your availability. The first four lessons, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, are designed to take advantage of calmer morning winds, making it easier for beginners to learn. The following four sessions, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, will expose you to moderately stronger winds, preparing you for a variety of sailing conditions. By the end of these sessions, you’ll be equipped to confidently navigate Cohasset’s inner and outer harbors, either solo or with friends and family, enjoying the scenic beauty from the water.Adult RefresherThe Cohasset Sailing Club’s Adult Refresher Course is for those who have completed the Learn to Sail course or who have sailed previously but haven't been on the water recently. This course is designed to reacquaint you with the fundamentals of sailing and update your skills in a supportive and practical environment. Our experienced instructors will be on hand to assist you and/or your group of friends on how to rig a Quest, the same boats used in our youth program, and be there as needed, either on the boat, trailing behind in a whaler or keeping an eye on you from land. You may register and join only the class dates that you wish to attend. Instructors will tailor the course to the abilities of the students present on that day providing near-private lessons with a small group of students. Beginning July 9th and ending July 27th, sessions will be held every Wednesday from 5:30 to 7:00 pm and every Sunday from 1:30 to 3:00 pm . The goal is to provide you with as many sessions as you need to pass the Helmsman Test to take out the Club’s Quests on your own or with friends and family as well as feel confident crewing on larger day sailers.For more information or questions: adultsailing@cohassetsailingclub.org
You must be able to swim 100 meters and tread water for 10 minutes without help. You will be asked to confirm this in the registration process.
Every participant needs a USCG certified PDF (personal flotation device) and closed toed shoes for each class.

Junior Sailing - Captain 1
The BasicsThe Junior program focuses on youth ages 10 – 16. One instructor likens it to attending summer day camp, but with your schoolmates. By taking advantage of the town’s seaside location, one can become an accomplished sailor within a few years. For those new to town, it is a great way to make friends before school starts in the fall. To enroll, students must have completed the 4th grade.Beginning students start with seamanship basics, and progressively acquire more advanced sailing skills. The mandatory equipment needed include a US Coast Guard approved type III life jacket and closed toed shoes. Sunscreen and a smile are also recommended.The Junior program has a four-year structure with an additional 5th and 6th year Race Team participation for those with advanced skills.
First-year students start at the Sailor level (after completion of 4th grade or older)
Second year students are in the Mate level
Third year students are in the Skipper level
Fourth year students are in the Captain level
After the successful completion of the 4 year program a fifth year student may join the Race team and may join again as a 6th year student.
Making Up Missed ClassesWe understand that summers are a busy time of year and your child will more than likely miss some sailing this summer. It is only necessary to contact us if your child is going to miss more than 1/3 of their classes. If you would like to arrange for private lessons (for an additional cost) for your child to get caught up please see our Program Director. Due to high enrollment it is not possible for students to attend a different class time to make up missed days.Your Program Director and InstructorsWe welcome back Maryellen Holler as our Program Director. Your instructors are college and high school students, many of whom went through the CSC’s Junior Program and Racing team. Our Senior Instructors are all U.S. Sailing Level I Certified Instructors, a designation granted to those who complete an intense week-long training program and who successfully test out, thus meeting rigorous U.S. Sailing Association national standards AND the Massachusetts Environmental Police Boating Safety Course. Other instructors are all experienced sailors, many of whom will become senior instructors in future seasons.

Adult Sailing Lessons - Adult Learn to Sail Lessons 2025
The adult sailing program is for Cohasset residents who are at least 18 years old. CSC offers 2 levels of instruction: Learn to Sail and Adult Refresher classes.Learn to SailThe Cohasset Sailing Club’s beginner-friendly Learn to Sail program is for those who are new to the sport or returning after a break. Our experienced instructors will teach you the basics of sailing, and provide hands on sailing experience as you take out a 14’ Quest as part of a small crew. Quests - the same boats used in our youth programs - are wide and forgiving, making them ideal for learning. The program consists of eight sessions, conveniently scheduled on Saturdays to accommodate your availability. The first four lessons, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM, are designed to take advantage of calmer morning winds, making it easier for beginners to learn. The following four sessions, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM, will expose you to moderately stronger winds, preparing you for a variety of sailing conditions. By the end of these sessions, you’ll be equipped to confidently navigate Cohasset’s inner and outer harbors, either solo or with friends and family, enjoying the scenic beauty from the water.Adult RefresherThe Cohasset Sailing Club’s Adult Refresher Course is for those who have completed the Learn to Sail course or who have sailed previously but haven't been on the water recently. This course is designed to reacquaint you with the fundamentals of sailing and update your skills in a supportive and practical environment. Our experienced instructors will be on hand to assist you and/or your group of friends on how to rig a Quest, the same boats used in our youth program, and be there as needed, either on the boat, trailing behind in a whaler or keeping an eye on you from land. You may register and join only the class dates that you wish to attend. Instructors will tailor the course to the abilities of the students present on that day providing near-private lessons with a small group of students. Beginning July 9th and ending July 27th, sessions will be held every Wednesday from 5:30 to 7:00 pm and every Sunday from 1:30 to 3:00 pm . The goal is to provide you with as many sessions as you need to pass the Helmsman Test to take out the Club’s Quests on your own or with friends and family as well as feel confident crewing on larger day sailers.For more information or questions: adultsailing@cohassetsailingclub.org
You must be able to swim 100 meters and tread water for 10 minutes without help. You will be asked to confirm this in the registration process.
Every participant needs a USCG certified PDF (personal flotation device) and closed toed shoes for each class.
