Special Notice!
NYC Junior Sailing is hoping someone may have or know of someone that has- a single person dinghy, like a laser or similar boat.
Due to Covid-19 restrictions and Sail NS guidelines, we are unable to host double-handed sailing in our 420 dinghys.
This leaves a number of our Senior junior sailors unable to participate this summer.
Please contact NYCJS at 902-794-9121 or email jrsailingnyc@gmail.com
if you know of a fitting boat that’s been under used lately or has been sitting in a barn somewhere, we’d be happy to chat about borrowing or leasing your boat this summer.
Thank you,
Richard Devoe
LTS Director
Did you contact Mira boat club, they had them there from the old sailing program.
Can bubble families use the double handed boats?
Hi Richard, tried calling but no voicemail- I have a laser I’d be happy to lend for the summer. Call me at +19025777022 and we can talk!
