Good evening!

Welcome to the website of The Sailing Club, a New Jersey based organization which organizes and runs bareboat charter sailing trips. We sail regularly on the Chesapeake Bay, on Long Island Sound and out of Newport, RI. We have also run trips in Maine, the Great Lakes, the San Juan Islands, Europe and the Caribbean.

People all over are talking about the Sailing Club! This article appeared in a local newspaper. We have also appeared in Cruising World magazine.

We have developed our website for prospective members, to give you an idea of who we are and what we do, and for current members, to keep you up to date on Club activities and trip plans.

On this site you will find:

• A "Who We Are" page which tells a little about our history, membership and how we operate
• An upcoming events page (this is where you will find information about our "off-the-water" events)
• Trip descriptions, sign up procedures, sign up forms, and reports on completed trips for this year's trips
• Reports on completed trips for this year and the past few years.
• Membership information and a Membership Form for downloading
• If you are interested in becoming a club-qualified Skipper or First Mate, check out our page on Training and Advancement.
• An "On Board" page, explaining some aspects of actually being on a boat with us
• A links page, containing links to a some other sailing related sites
• Contact information for the Club's officers, trustees, and trip leaders
• Guidelines for submitting Trip Proposals
• Most pages now have a convenient link called "Tell a Friend" in case you want to tell someone else about The Sailing Club and our website.

It is our hope that what you find here will interest you and prompt a phone call or email for more information. Whether you are already a sailor, have never been on a boat before, or are someplace in between, the Sailing Club is a great place to make new friends, have a fun time doing it, and hone your skills, as well!
