What we’re about
Meet with other sailing enthusiasts at our Meetup events, attend sailing education seminars, share stories, find skippers, find crew, and go sailing!! Last year many members became crew on competitive racing boats, others learned to sail, and some went for day sails cruising around Long Island Sound. We offer through City Island Yacht Club, a Club Boat Timeshare that offers unlimited sailing on three Catalina 25's and a Merit 25.
No sailing experience is necessary, we offer a range of seminars that appeal to all levels, from newbies to advanced sailors. Our Meetup events are held at City Island Yacht Club, about an hour's ride from Grand Central Station on the #6 Lexington Ave local plus a short bus (#29) ride, also convenient to the Hutchinson River Parkway and the I-95. There is even a direct Express Bus that runs up Madison Ave right to City Island! ".

ATTENTION RACING SKIPPERS, SAILORS, WANNABE CREWS AND CRUISERS!
The BIG TOM Wednesday Night summer sailboat racing series on Eastchester Bay begins in just a couple of weeks. There are sixteen Wednesday evening races scheduled between May 21 and September 3.

This is a great opportunity for non-racers who want to meet experienced racers, join sailing crews, or just mingle to ask questions and learn how much fun there is in racing. Come one, come all!
Skippers who have a boat to enter are encouraged to sign up now. Those skippers who sign up before the May 14th event on the Yachtscoring.com website, will receive a Big Tom hat! The first race is May 21 so time is short. The Wednesday night series is open to all boats 24 feet or longer. The fee is only $180 for the entire summer of 16 races. What a deal!
