  • Full Moon Light Sailing ALL LEVELS - Sail the bay at full moon with other cruise boats, maybe even rafting up in the middle of the bay.

  • Mariner Mayhem ALL LEVELS - An excellent way to learn to sail by crewing on a Mariner. Learn the tricks and technique from our experienced Mariner racers.

  • Cruising Boat Race with Handicap Scoring ALL LEVELS - Have a cruising sailing boat (including Mariners) and would like to participate in some racing? Then join us in a Performance Handicap Racing Fleet (PHRF) regatta.
