Welcome Aboard !

The Seven Lakes Sailing Club organizes sailing and social events. The sailing events include formal races around defined courses, Learn-to-Sail and Introduction to Racing courses and other sailing related activities. Activities are scheduled on Lake Auman. Our social events include after-race BYOB Events, Boat Parades, Rafting Parties, Banquets  and more. The Events page will give you some idea of what we do....and how much fun we have.

The Sailing Club is open to any Seven Lakes resident or landowner who has an interest in the water or in boat related social events. This includes power boaters and non-boaters.

Our newsletter, the mainSheet, is updated as needed. It is the voice of the Club's Leadership and is sent directly to the Membership when "published".

Current news and announcements can be found on the Announcements page of the site. Notice of new postings will be announced in the Announcements window on the right. Current news and announcements may be posted by any of the Club's members.

Because club members have a variety of sailboats, racing events are run under the US Sailing version of the Portsmouth handicap system. The club also includes a number of power boating members who have interests in sailing activities.

Committee and Safety Boat Crew

As you might guess, sailboat racing is one of the cornerstone events of the Seven Lakes Sailing Club. In addition to being a huge amount of fun, I am constantly amazed at how much I have learned about sailing and my boat. None of this would be possible without the support of the Club's volunteers who set the marks and run the Committee and Safety boats.

As a small token of our appreciation, these photos show them hard at work. The first photo: Pre-race activities not only include designing the course based on wind, but laying the marks before the race. The second photo: The Committee boat crew preparing to "check in" a racer and preparing for the start sequence.

Thank You!
