CGSC Youth Summer Sailing & Windsurfing Programs is part of the CGSC Instructional Center, which is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and part of Coconut Grove Sailing Club. The CGSC Instructional Center is a recognized US Sailing Accredited School, and all instructors are US Sailing certified. The program groups campers by age and experience, uses boats and boards designed specifically for learning, and runs rain or shine, with on-water activities pausing only for thunder or lightning. Summer Racing Clinics are open to all Optimist, ILCA, and C420 sailors and emphasize tactical decision-making, advanced starting techniques, and precise boat handling in all conditions.
Coconut Grove Sailing Club was founded in 1946 by a small group of passionate Miami sailors. The CGSC Instructional Center’s mission is to champion the sport of sailing and expand its accessibility by delivering standards-based instruction at every level, welcoming new sailors, preserving Coconut Grove’s sailing tradition, and meeting national standards for safety, instruction, and seamanship. The organization’s community involvement began with a focus on creating a safe, welcoming space to teach sailing, especially to children, and organizing regattas that brought the community together on the water.
The Youth Sailing Program and Camps contact is Rosa Lamela. Green Fleet Racing Clinics are coached by Aish Nedunchezhiyan and Luis Orlando “Kope” Novoa, ILCA Racing Clinics are coached by Orlando Gonzalez, and C420 Racing Clinics are coached by Justin Louden. The leadership team includes General Manager Lauren Simpson, President Priska Urban, Vice Presidents William Sancho and Olivier de Lavalette, Secretary Director Doreen Fischer, and Treasurer Director John Sauvigne.
