This is my 5th summer as an Instructor and my first summer as a CanSail 4 instructor! I was on both the Lake of Bays Sailing Club’s race team and on the North Shore Race Team in Vancouver. I am looking forward to using my knowledge of sailing and my experience as a sailing instructor to make this summer as fun, educational and safe as possible for all the sailors at LBSC! I graduated from Carleton University with a Degree in Security and Intelligence and am applying to work as an officer in the Canadian Coast Guard. I am very excited for this summer and can’t wait to see all of you on the water!

He’s thrilled to be back on staff this year and is ready to make this summer another unforgettable one!

I’m excited to be back for my 10th year at LBSC this summer working on my CAN 6 and as a new IIT. I'm hoping to attend CORK for the 4th time this year. Whether I’m coaching, sailing, or just hanging out on the dock with the other sailors, I’m always happy to be on the water. I live in Montréal, Québec, where the winters are cold, the hills are steep, and the potholes are craters. When not sailing, you'll find me mountain biking, climbing, skiing or filming. I love being outside and pushing myself. LBSC has always felt like a second home to me, and I can’t wait for another summer of good weather, great people, and hopefully some great wind.

Rachel is super excited to be starting her first year instructing at LBSC! She just finished grade 11 at Havergal College, where she played volleyball, field hockey and ultimate frisbee.

He’s currently finishing up Grade 11 at Ramaz Upper School in Manhattan, New York, and can’t wait to return to Lake Of Bays this summer for his first time as an IIT.

Having started at LBSC almost a decade ago as a young sailor himself, Zane is thrilled to now be on the other side—teaching, mentoring, and sharing his love for the sport with the next generation of sailors. He’s especially looking forward to sunny and windy days on the water, helping sailors build their confidence and skills, creating another summer full of fun, friendships, and great memories.
