Requirements:

Spring Sailing requires the use of a dry suit or wet suit when required by the coaching staff. Water temps in April are in the 30's. For safety reasons we cannot allow you to sail without a dry suit during the spring. Students are responsible for providing their own dry suit.

Dry suits are NOT required for the fall season.
