If you would like to sail but do not want to spend the time or money to join the race team, are a grad-student or community member, or are new to sailing then your best option is to join the cruising portion of our club.
Joining:
Simply show up at one of our cruising days to be introduced to some basic sailing skills. Absolutely no experience is necessary to join!
Sailing times:
Friday, 4:00pm- 8:00pm (weather permitting)
If none of these times work for you, alternate times can be worked out to fit your schedule.
Dues:
Dues are $40 for the year.
You are allowed to go sailing twice before you need to pay dues. This $40 also makes you eligible to go on regattas, you simply need to pay each regatta fee of $25. So feel free to try racing and see if you like it!
Learning to sail:
If it is you first time out with us you will need to complete a swimming test (mandatory) and a basic sailing skills test (optional).
From there we will place you in one of the following groups and you can begin learning/sailing.
1. Beginner
2. Crew
i. Light air
