The CIT program has been redesigned for 2024. Now more than ever, CITs will be involved in teaching young children how to sail. Prior sailing experience is mandatory. This is a great gateway to a future position teaching sailing at camps, yacht clubs, and sailing schools. Port Sailing School does not guarantee future employment.
