Sailing is a wonderful activity and can provide you and your family and friends with many hours of enjoyment. For the sake of safety, we highly recommend sailing classes since sailing can be a fun, yet challenging activity where skill and technique are important.

Proper maintenance and care can help your Melges stay in good condition and have a higher value at resale. More importantly, the right maintenance, care, and equipment can help you to have a safer, more enjoyable time on the water.
