     After the classroom sessions, you'll be able to put your new skills to work, sailing on the Racine Yacht Club member's yachts. Many of RYC's members are volunteering their time and their vessels to allow you to use your experience - "hands-on" - sailing on Lake Michigan.  Following the final on-the-water session, you will be treated to a pizza party at the club, with a certificate presentation indicating your completion of the course.
