The Overfalls Sail-Away Day youth program provides an introduction to sailing for children 5 years of age and older. Attendees will learn the history of sailing and how sailing has affected our local history in Lewes and the Delaware Bay. The inside and decks of beautiful yachts that compete in local and open ocean races will be available for touring. Meet and hear stories from some of the “Saltiest” sailors in Delaware, including one of the most impressive female sailors in the country. Learn how sails are raised and lowered and changed to maximize speed when racing in a regatta, and how lines and halyards are used. The Lewes Yacht Club will bring one of their training sailboats and talk about how to attend their sailing school.
