Sailing Summer Camps with Eagle Harbour Yacht Club

By family fun vancouver | june 17, 2024.

Spending the summer sailing the ocean blue seems like the stuff of fairy tales and an activity only attainable by the well-to-do. But when we live a hop, skip, and jump from the Pacific Ocean, how can we not be lured by the magic of the waves and experience a type of freedom found nowhere else? And when you have a fantastic sailing school offering week-long sailing camps starting at $360 per week, how can you say no?!

The setting for the sailing summer camp with Eagle Harbour Yacht Club couldn’t get more stunning! Eagle Harbour Yacht Club is located at the entrance to Howe Sound, in West Vancouver. From sheltered Eagle Harbour, sailors can learn to sail in one of the most beautiful areas of Vancouver.

The Eagle Harbour Yacht Club is passionate about getting kids onto the water. Their summer sailing camps provide a fantastic knowledge base for future sailors. The emphasis is on safety and fun with the ultimate objective being to develop a lifelong love of sailing in the summer camp participants. Whether your child is a seasoned pro or has never set toe on a sailboat before, Eagle Harbour Yacht Club has a summer camp that will suit them.

There is a wide variety of summer camps available which accommodate varying ages and sailing experience:

Wet Feet (Intro) – A gentle one-week introduction to sailing in Optimist dinghies for children 7-9 years of age with no sailing experience.

Opti Basic – Upon completion of Wet Feet, children 6-9 years of age can begin developing their sailing skills in Optimist dinghies during these one-week courses.

CANSail 1 – A two-week course for children 10+ years of age who are beginning their journey in sailing, using double-handed dinghies. This is an entry-level course for older children that teaches fundamental sailing skills including basic sheeting, steering, and boat handling on all points of sail. Upon completion, sailors can sail within defined boundaries set by an instructor.

CANSail 2 – A two-week course which builds on the skills learned in CANSail 1. This teaches sailors to adjust their bodies and boats for changes in direction and wind speed while sailing and to perform boat-handling maneuvers in a controlled manner while in a controlled setting.

CANSail 3 – A two-week intermediate sailing course that teaches sailors to integrate the fundamental boat handling maneuvers and balance with basic tactics and strategy as well as applied sail trim. Sailors are exposed to a greater variety of conditions and participate in a club race or club training camp.

CANSail 4 – A two-week advanced sailing course that teaches sailors to perform advanced boat handling maneuvers in a variety of conditions. Sailors can successfully execute maneuvers in competitive settings and for tactical and strategic purposes. Sailors participate in a one or two-day regatta.

When helping your child pack for their sailing summer camp with Eagle Harbour Yacht Club, use this checklist to ensure nothing is left at home:

• Coast Guard-approved life jacket (you can rent one if you don’t own one)
• Bathing suit
• Change of clothes (at least one)
• Water bottle
• Proper footwear (please no flip flops or open-toed shoes, shoes similar to Natives and Crocs are recommended)
• Healthy lunch and snacks
• Helmet (you can rent one from us) to use until you become accustom to ducking when the boom swings over your head

The sailing programs follow the CANSAIL curriculum set by the Canadian Yachting Association (CYA), which is recognized worldwide as one of the top national sailing authorities. Sailing schools across Canada follow and recognize the CYA certification levels, so the instruction your child will receive is recognized throughout Canada and also overseas.

Yacht club in West Van ordered to pay after member’s fall from dock

• Share by Email
• Share on Facebook
• Share on LinkedIn
• Share via Text Message

West Vancouver's Eagle Harbour Yacht Club has been ordered to pay up more than $20,000 to a member who was injured in a fall from their dock.

But the woman failed to convince a judge that a second fall at another nearby yacht club almost a year later was also the fault of Eagle Harbour.

In June 2013, Linda Powell stepped onto a board linking two docks at the Eagle Harbour Yacht Club. The board, which was not properly secured, collapsed and Powell fell into the water, injuring her back, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Bruce Butler found.

In the months following, she experienced back pain that made her unable to ski or play tennis and made sailing difficult. Months later, she found she was in too much discomfort to tolerate sitting in an economy class seat on her way to her vacation home in Italy.

In May 2014, Powell was walking on a paved area near the Thunderbird Marina when she fell and broke her wrist.

In her suit, Powell claimed the second fall was immediately preceded by a back spasm, which she said was a result of the initial injury.

The defendants, Eagle Harbour and the club's maintenance staffer Collen Santer, admitted liability for the first fall but denied any responsibility for the second. The case went to trial in January. The defendants question Powell’s credibility about the nature and extent of her back symptoms arising from the first fall and about the circumstances of the second fall.

During her months of physiotherapy before the second fall, Powell had shown a marked improvement, according to her physiotherapist’s testimony, and was preparing to return to playing tennis, the judge noted. And when she was admitted to the emergency room for her broken wrist, Powell made no mention to the triage nurse about a back spasm causing the fall, according to testimony at trial.

The judge also noted how the relationship between Powell and the Eagle Harbour Yacht Club had deteriorated after the first fall. Powell accused the club's leadership of failing to penalize Santer. Eventually they wrote her a letter threatening expulsion if she did not stop harassing and bullying him, the judge noted in his April 5 written decision.

Ultimately the judge said he didn’t find Powell’s evidence about the injuries to be reliable.

“She had a pronounced tendency to reconstruct past events in a way that is consistent with her belief that Eagle Harbour is at fault for both falls and for all of the symptoms caused by both falls. I do not conclude that she is intentionally misleading the court. Rather, the plaintiff’s personal interests and her negative views of Eagle Harbour have caused her to ‘unconsciously indulge in the human tendency to reconstruct and distort history in a manner that favours the desired outcome,'” the judge wrote in his ruling.

The judge awarded Powell $22,500 for her pain and loss of enjoyment of life in the months following the first fall as well as $1,045 for physiotherapy costs. Powell had sought $55,000.

David Slater. March 3, 1940 – December 16, 2023 Dave leaves behind his wife, Sue, his daughter Judy (Rob) Mitchell, his son Tim (Peter), granddaughters Jenna and Megan, and many friends and family.
