Sailing battles are a cross between dodgeball and sailing – throw Nerf missiles to score points against rival boats. An exciting way to learn sailing and improve your skills!
The rules are simple, and are easily demonstrated in the diagram below.
If you need to cancel a private battle, please let us know as soon as possible. We can reschedule or give credit for a future battle with advanced notice; any cancellation within 48 hours of battle will incur a 10% rescheduling fee. No cash refunds will be given for guest-initiated cancellations.
Everyone! We focus on bringing the world of sailing to beginners and experts alike.
Each boat has several roles typically with 3-5 people per boat:
Skipper: Drives the boat and helps the team with navigation & strategy
Trimmer: adjust the power (sails) of the boat and helps team tempo & speed
Spotter: keeps track of boats, missiles, and score & helps the team with situational awareness.
Gunner: fires & retrieves the missiles & helps team with strategy

If you don’t know how to sail or want guidance, we have professional battle skippers who are USCG captains to teach you the ropes.
Spectator boat(s): We have additional boats on the water to watch and cheer the battles on.
We battle rain or shine! If it's wet outside bring a jacket and prepare for adventure. There may be times where it's unsafe to be out on the water, and we in those cases we're happy to reschedule you for a safer outing.
Comfortable clothing and closed-toed shoes as you'll be moving around the boat. Layers work well on the water as temperatures can vary depending on the wind and sun.
For private battles, your event lasts for 2 hours, including breaking up into teams and going over the basic rules and roles, as well as a brief recap after the battle. On-the-water time is typically about 1.5 hours. Battle time for each individual depends on the size of the group, but everyone gets two battles.
For leagues, your individual time battling depends on how many people participate that day....HOW LONG ARE LEAGUE BATTLES OVERALL, 2 HOURS?
