Kingston Foiling Sailing Lessons 2023

Kingston Yacht Club is pleased to partner with WeCANFoil as a foiling hub for the 2023 season. WeCANFoil, winner of the best foiling pathway program, is an arm of SailGP Canada that promotes and provides opportunities for sailors to try the exciting sport of foil sailing.

This season, Kingston Yacht Club is offering three different programs for both youth and adults. These programs will allow sailors to experience foiling at a relatively low cost, try the sport out, and develop their skills.

Programs are taught on the WASZP (the most popular one design foiling dinghy), and Wingfoils (the newest foiling boards). Coaching is available for all program options, and state of the art coaching techniques and equipment allow for direct on-water communication and video debriefs to track your progress.

Come for five days and go fast! Progressing from take off, to sustaining foiling, to foiling maneuvers, you’re going to love this! If you can sail a planing dinghy (Laser/420/29er) you will be lifting onto the foils in no time. Become part of the fastest growing one design fleet in Canada! You will also have the opportunity to learn to Wingfoil!
