On The Water
About Us
If you are competitive, social or just like to go fast, the CBSC Sailing Team is for you! We sail in Optimist, Laser, and 420 Sailboats. Our team is a fun inclusive group who love to be on the water!
Spring and Fall Team Programs
Our Club Sailing Teams (teams A) meet once weekly, training and racing with local sailors.
Our Regional Teams (teams B&C) meet one or two days a week to sail and race. They also compete at two away regattas in the Spring and two in the Fall! These away regattas are ton of fun and provide a chance to meet and compete with other sailors from around the province.
About the Boats
The Optimist class of boat is for sailors generally in Elementary School and some advanced sailors up to the age of 14.
The Laser class of boat has the choice of three different sizes of sails on the same hull allowing it to be suitable for sailors ranging from ~110lbs to ~210lbs.

The C420 Class of boat is sailed by two people and while joining with a partner is ideal, we will do our best to find you a partner that matches your skill, size and goals.
