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 commodore.slsc@gmail.com. Membership fee for a family is $25 per year.
