The mission of Community Boating Center (CBC) is to provide instruction and access to recreational sailing and boating for all, with an emphasis on children, without regard to financial station. We do so by providing programs to build self-esteem, broaden horizons, and advance environmental awareness. CBC nurtures a true sense of community in which the diversity of the urban environment is respected and encouraged.
