If you have a passion for sailing and a thirst for adventure; if you want to sail

“where the wind blows” without worrying about if the wind blows; if you want to

sail in the company of other club friends and our guests; if you missed our

extended cruise to Nova Scotia and Newfoundland in 2024 and 2026; if you want

to trade in a few crummy New England months for those famous warm easterly

trade winds and sandy beaches in the Leeward and Windward islands - while also

preserving your ski season; consider taking the next step and sail or charter

south of Bermuda outside of the hurricane season in the best sailing grounds of

the North Atlantic Ocean.

Don’t have a boat? Want to skip the long offshore

passages to get there? Need crew? Want to crew?

Then you will want to zoom in

on the details and discounts we can offer in this “crew meeting”
