International Sailing School Celebrates it's 25th year on Malletts Bay, Vermont
The International Sailing School has commissioned it's 25th season of excellence in sail education.
Malletts Bay, VT (PRWEB) May 9, 2005 -- The International Sailing School has
commissioned it's 25th season of excellence in sail education. Located at 511
West Lakeshore Drive in Colchester, Vermont; thousands have discovered the sport
of sailing with our 2 and 5 day instructional programs. The Vermont season runs
from early May thru the end of September. Owner & director, Robin
Doyle,"can't believe we've been plying the waters of Lake Champlain for so
long!" Robin started out as a sailing instructor in the early eighties after
graduating from the University of Vermont in 1981. Originally from Essex,
Connecticut, Robin grew up in the long island sound racing environment. She
purchased the school in 1987 from founders John Landry & Paul
Ravenna.
Curriculum has grown to 20 different courses for the beginning
to advanced sailor. New programs for 2005 include a classroom coastal navigation
course and an adult dinghy learn to sail program. Applicable for all ages; 8 to
80; sailing is truly a life long sport -- an ideal environment for family
quality time. All ISS programs certify sailors to the internationally accepted
standards of the American Sailing Association. The credentials you'll need to
rent and charter boats around the world. Every certified sailor will also
receive a free week of sailing privileges following your course. It's
essentially a free week of sailing club membership to cement the skills and
build your confidence.
Our fleet of sailboats has also expanded to
accommodate our popular International Sailing Club. Members can sail everyday
without owning a boat aboard a fleet of 30 sailing craft ranging in size from 13
to 32 feet. From dinghies to pocket cruisers; we have an assortment of new
membership options -- racing only, beach boat only as well as weekly and monthly
memberships. Rates vary as per membership, but are extremely attractive when
compared to boat ownership expense.
As our 25th season commences on
Malletts Bay; owner, Robin Doyle, "sends many thanks to the huge crew of sailors
who have graced our decks and supported us the last 25 years. It's been a
pleasure to serve you, the sailors, who have made this milestone possible. We
take great pride in sharing our passion for the sport of sailing. Thousands have
been bitten by the sailing bug due to their ISS experience. We hope we have
helped to chart a course for many new life long sailors. Much appreciation to
all our sailing comrades--old and new. And remember..sailors have more fun!!"
Discover the sport of sailing! It's a life time sport the whole family
can enjoy!
The International Sailing School & Club welcomes writers
and photographers and invites you to join us for a "press pass" sailing
course.
