“Sailing a boat calls for quick action, a blending of feeling with the wind and water as well as with the very heart and soul of the boat itself. Sailing teaches alertness and courage, and gives in return a joyousness and peace that but few sports afford.”
‍‍-George Matthew Adams

“You haven't lived until you've sailed.”

DEEP CREEK SAILING SCHOOL

Deep Creek Sailing School (DCSS) teaches sailing skills to sailors of all ages through a program that promotes safety and fun on beautiful Deep Creek Lake in Western Maryland. U.S. Sailing-certified instructors guide students through water and boat safety, basic sailing, boat handling, and, for our more advanced students, racing techniques, using Optimist Prams, Lasers, 420s and Flying Scots. As students advance, they are encouraged to participate in sailboat racing. Week-long classes are available for juniors, teens, and adults. In addition, adult private sailing lessons are available all summer upon request. So put down your electronic devices and join on team in the fresh mountain air!!

DCSS shares facilities with the Deep Creek Yacht Club at Turkey Neck, but is a completely separate 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and open to the entire community.
