Nautigals is just for the women of the club. Sailing is often a male-dominated sport, so this group provides women with a place to practice their sailing skills with each other. Nautigals is the perfect place to get outside and socialize with other women – while becoming a better sailor!

The season always begins with a breakfast to catch up on the previous winter and meet new members. The Nautigal Summer Series kicks off on May 7th and goes through mid September. We practice navigating through simple sailing courses, maneuvering a boat to the starting line, and applying the rules of sailing in all situations. A Women's Championship takes place at the end of every season - this year it's on Sept. 19th at 12:00pm. Educational and other events are also held throughout the season.

You’ll find a mix of seasoned sailors and beginners who have just completed lessons in the group, so no matter your level or interest in sailing, you’ll be sure to make a friend. Just be warned – their passion for sailing is often contagious so you never know when you’ll end up out on the water.

Members can sign up for Thursday night sailing practice            by clicking here.
