The International Sailing School has commissioned it's 25th season of excellence in sail education.

Malletts Bay, VT (PRWEB) May 9, 2005 -- The International Sailing School has commissioned it's 25th season of excellence in sail education. Located at 511 West Lakeshore Drive in Colchester, Vermont; thousands have discovered the sport of sailing with our 2 and 5 day instructional programs. The Vermont season runs from early May thru the end of September. Owner & director, Robin Doyle,"can't believe we've been plying the waters of Lake Champlain for so long!" Robin started out as a sailing instructor in the early eighties after graduating from the University of Vermont in 1981. Originally from Essex, Connecticut, Robin grew up in the long island sound racing environment. She purchased the school in 1987 from founders John Landry & Paul Ravenna.

Curriculum has grown to 20 different courses for the beginning to advanced sailor. New programs for 2005 include a classroom coastal navigation course and an adult dinghy learn to sail program. Applicable for all ages; 8 to 80; sailing is truly a life long sport -- an ideal environment for family quality time. All ISS programs certify sailors to the internationally accepted standards of the American Sailing Association. The credentials you'll need to rent and charter boats around the world. Every certified sailor will also receive a free week of sailing privileges following your course. It's essentially a free week of sailing club membership to cement the skills and build your confidence.

Our fleet of sailboats has also expanded to accommodate our popular International Sailing Club. Members can sail everyday without owning a boat aboard a fleet of 30 sailing craft ranging in size from 13 to 32 feet. From dinghies to pocket cruisers; we have an assortment of new membership options -- racing only, beach boat only as well as weekly and monthly memberships. Rates vary as per membership, but are extremely attractive when compared to boat ownership expense.

As our 25th season commences on Malletts Bay; owner, Robin Doyle, "sends many thanks to the huge crew of sailors who have graced our decks and supported us the last 25 years. It's been a pleasure to serve you, the sailors, who have made this milestone possible. We take great pride in sharing our passion for the sport of sailing. Thousands have been bitten by the sailing bug due to their ISS experience. We hope we have helped to chart a course for many new life long sailors. Much appreciation to all our sailing comrades--old and new. And remember..sailors have more fun!!"

Discover the sport of sailing! It's a life time sport the whole family can enjoy!

The International Sailing School & Club welcomes writers and photographers and invites you to join us for a "press pass" sailing course.
