Private Sailing Lessons for all skill levels. Sailing Instruction is customized for each person to ensure a pleasant and safe sailing experience. Captain and Coach Jay Winters can usually teach a new student to sail a Sunfish in three to four hours. Lessons and coached/guided sails can also be offered on the very stable WindRider 17 Trimaran. (Jay is fully vaccinated.)
Jay will make a special trip to Bimini Bay just to work with you.
The First Hour of instruction is often taught with the student in shallow water, while the coach goes over basic parts of a sailboat, rigging, basic sailing theory, turning (tacking and jibing), points of sail, avoiding a capsize, capsize recovery, getting out of a stall and more.
After a very short break, The Second Hour will be spent with the coach and the student sailing on the same boat, while the student is in control of both the tiller and the sail. The Third Hour will often be spent with the student sailing on his/her own, as the instructor coaches the student(s) from a central location or follows on another Sunfish or on a kayak.

I've never been sailing, but Jay was a great instructor! He explained it all methodically and clearly so i could follow. i was comfortable and able to sail alone at the end of our lesson, while he cruised around me on a kayak giving me additional instruction. It was super fun!
Some prep notes: wear a shirt to protect from sun, and use LOTS of suntan lotion on your thighs, they'll be in the sun continuously! (I did a 3hr lesson on a sunfish). I also wore Keen brand water shoes and it worked out great. Additionally, review the ebook or browse around online to get a few of the concepts, it'll really help accelerate your understanding.Great experience learning from Jay! He is a master! Highly recommend

I have know Brian & Jay for more than 10 years. Brian has retired & Jay has taken over Bimini Bay Sailing. Jay has earned his Captain’s license and has decades of teaching experience as a college professor. No need to look any further if you are interested in learning to sail in fun & safe environment! Also, Jay has a special connection with children… bring the entire family and take turns taking lessons and chilling! Can’t think of a better way to spend family time on the water learning a new skill!Positive: Communication, Professionalism, Quality, Value
Thank you Jay ! I had a great experience this week in your 3-hour sunfish sailing lesson. I thoroughly enjoyed your detailed instruction, history review and wonderful coaching. I can’t wait to read your book and come back to Sarasota again to sail with you out on the Bay !Jay is an excellent sailing instructor! Very knowledgeable and he took time to explain various parts of the sailboat and how they work. He’s also a wonderful storyteller as well! Our time on Tampa Bay was very relaxing and enjoyable. If you’re looking to enjoy a couple of hours out on the water, take a sailing lesson with Jay! Happy sailing….
