The NYC Free Sailing School is Back!

We’re excited to announce that the NYC Free Sailing School is back in New York City! Monthly free sailing seminars will be resuming soon, so stay tuned for updates.

We held 30 consecutive seminars in NYC without missing a beat—until this winter, when we expanded to Sebastian, Florida. Now, we’re thrilled to offer monthly free sailing seminars in both Florida and New York City.

Pippa and I have already hosted two monthly free seminars in Florida starting March 2025, and we plan to keep going as long as it’s fun and people are excited to learn!

In NYC, the Free Sailing School is moving to Brooklyn. If you’re still interested in sailing for free at our old spot in Flushing Bay, we recommend reaching out to the Funky Funky Flotilla. They’re a great community dedicated to saving the beach, and I love them dearly—especially since I introduced them to one another! They likely have a Meetup page and an Instagram account. If you have trouble finding them, I’m happy to connect you directly or share their WhatsApp group link.

Please support them and help us build a strong sailing community together. My mission is to create as many new sailors as possible—and that includes Funky Flotilla sailors too! They’re located right next to LaGuardia Airport. Just note: I’m no longer affiliated with any sailing activities in Flushing Bay.

What We Do:

The Free Sailing School is a completely free sailing skillshare. We help anyone become a confident, solo adventure sailor—no cost, no catch.

Each month, we host a free 3-day intensive sailing seminar, typically starting on the last Friday of the month and continuing through Saturday and Sunday. That’s three full days of hands-on training, community, and adventure.

Our goal is to get as many people from all walks of life—especially Floridians and New Yorkers—out on the water and growing as sailors. We aim to be a trusted resource and a source of empowerment in our communities.

Feel free to scroll through our past events here to see the details of our 30 consecutive free monthly 3 day sailing seminars and even more impressive you should check out the amazing expeditions. We did at the Pato! sailing club also on Meetup.the.
