Keelboat Schools:   These sailboats have a weighted keel (the vertical fin at the bottom of the boat)  which counterbalances the force of the wind in the sails.  "Basic  keelboats" are start at about 20' in length and go up to about 30' in length.   Cruising keelboats have inboard engines, with most over 30' in length    Find Keelboat Sailing Schools

Small Boat:   Small boats or dingies, are under 25 feet in length.  Most are trailerable and carry centerboards or swing keels (weighted keels that retract into the boat for trailering).   Find Small Boat Sailing Schools


 
 

Windsurfing Schools:  Windsurfers are fiberglass "boards", much like a surfboard.  A sail is attached to a rotating mast which is secured to the board.   Find Windsurfing Schools

Powerboat Schools:   A powerboat has an inboard or outboard engine which is used to propel the boat.  A sailboat that is under the power of its engine is classified as a powerboat.   Find Powerboat Schools
