Group sailing events are planned throughout the year. Members may come down and casually sail together for a couple of hours on a weekend morning, then meet back at the club for lunch.

Once or twice a year, the entire club heads out to spend the day sailing to an exotic Caribbean beach for a barbecue, snorkeling and other activities. Check the Calendar or watch your newsletter for upcoming meet-ups, adventure sails, or other activities then call or email and let us know if you can skipper or crew.

It’s a great way to meet your fellow members and learn more about sailboat racing. See our Calendar for racing schedule.
