SAILORS CORNER
Local Wind and Weather Conditions
Every Spring, we offer an "Introduction to Sailing" class. The course consists of 3 consecutive Saturday morning classroom lessons. Upon completion, participants practice hands-on rigging of a small sailboat and experience a one hour on-the-water demonstration. Classes are targeted to beginners interested in the sport of small sailboat sailing. Class size is limited to the first 12 registrations. The $75 fee covers an annual one year membership in our club.
In the news: Galveston County "The Daily News"
We also offer an "Intermediate Sailing Class" when participation warrants. This series of class lessons focuses on more advanced sailing skills and an Introduction to Racing. For details, contact us.
SOCIAL SAILING
Throughout the Spring, Summer, and Fall seasons we are offering opportunities to enjoy weekend sailing in the Greater Houston area. Bring out your boat and sail with us. For details, contact us.
RACES
We sponsor informal racing on alternate Saturdays throughout the Summer and monthly during the Winter.
Annual "Waiting for the Great Pumpkin" Regatta
CLSC hosts a fun annual regatta in October. This two day weekend event includes approximately four races and an evening group dinner. There are plenty of local hotels and we arrange for temporary boat storage. Past participants have traveled from Dallas, Austin, Corpus Christi and all points between.
We encourage small sailboat sailing! But you need to understand that water sports in general carry some risk. Please read and sign the waiver prior to participating in our club events.
SAILBOATS
Need a hand getting your boat ready to sail? Our members have experience and are happy to help out. Throughout the year, we are happy to offer free public sailboat clinics to assist you in getting your sailboat rigged and on the water. Just contact us for upcoming opportunities.
No boat yet? We have several donated boats available for purchase with a very small fee. As a non-profit organization, we also offer free advice for purchasing your own small sailboat.
