Welcome Aboard!
The Seven Lakes Sailing Club is a group of primarily Seven Lakes West residents who have an interest in sailing. We organize a program of events that includes sailboat races around defined courses on beautiful Lake Auman, learn-to-sail courses, informal sailing events for non-sailors and social activities. The racing events are run with all sizes of sailing boats from Sunfish to J-22 using the Portsmouth handicap system. Our social events include after-race BYOB’s, Boat Parades, Rafting Parties, Lobsterfest, Banquet, etc.
/>The club also includes many pontoon boat and powerboat members who have interests in sailing and in our social activities. You don’t need to have a boat to join and enjoy the sailing and social events of the club. For more information contact the Club Commodore, Bob Fewkes at 673-4659, or e-mail Bob at commodore.slsc@gmail.com. Membership fee for a family is $25 per year. Sail About July 24th

Join this non-racing sailing event for the smaller sailing boats on the lake on Saturday July 24th. The tour is aimed for boats like Sunfishes, Lasers, Precision 14's and American 14's. The intent is to make an informal tour around the lake together. The tour will start at the North West corner of Pine Island at 10 AM. The tour will take about 90 minutes and is led by Bob Fewkes in his Sunfish. Even when you are not an experienced sailor, this event is for you! A safety boat will follow the group of boats.
We will keep an eye on the weather and we will let you know in case the weather does not permit us to sail.
A new sailing season!

Then, all SLSC members are invited to a kickoff BYOB on May 15th at 5:00 PM on the Fewkes’ lakeside yard. (RSVP This email address is being protected from spambots.
