About Inverness Yacht Club Youth Sailing Program Benefit The IYC Youth Sailing Program offers summer instruction in sailing for young people.  In addition to sailing principles, boat handling and basic water safety skills, the program teaches sportsmanship, respect for one another and the environment, as well as an appreciation for Tomales Bay. Although the focus is on learning through fun activities, for those that are interested, there is also an opportunity to develop racing skills.

The program is organized through the efforts of the IYC Youth Sailing Committee and run by a group of enthusiastic qualified instructors who are experienced sailors. The young sailors come from West Marin as well as around the Bay Area and even from across the country.  Scholarships are given to those who need financial support and to ensure a diverse community of young sailors.   The program continues a 50-year tradition that has produced some world-class racers and many more sailors who have found a lifetime of pleasure sailing as well as many happy and self-confident young people.
