Interested in sailing but looking for sailing instruction that is better tailored to you? We can do that! Private lessons may be taught as a private (one-on-one) lesson or a semi-private lesson (up to four) students. Green Bay Sail & Paddle, Inc. reserves the right to limit a semi-private lesson to two (2) students. Several factors such as age and experience shall be taken into account when a semi-private lesson is scheduled. We take pride in ensuring a safe and fun learning environment for each and every student.
