We are a non-profit co-operative social-sailing club for adults. Interested in an affordable means of sailing or discovering basic sailing techniques in a casual atmosphere? We have it! Boats, safety equipment, and volunteer skippers are coordinated by the club and are included in one low membership fee. Off the water we host many social activities and events throughout the year at our bayside clubhouse and compound. Check our FAQ’s for more details.

The season has started! Regular scheduled sailing is well under way and the Albacores and Sirius’ are seeing lots of use in this beautiful weather. Members are welcome to come on down on your regularly scheduled evening to get on the water.
