The Northport Youth Sailing School (NYSS) is in full swing this summer, with 190 little sailors enrolled and a scholarship program covering 30 local children, according to Andy Neal, the sailing school’s president.

“We’re humming along,” Neal said. “Our numbers are really good.”

The school, which sails out of South Beach in the village of Northport, serves kids ages 8 to 18 with classes running five weeks, mornings and afternoons, from beginner “little puffs” up through solo sailing and racing skills.
