The Villages Sailing Club
The Villages Sailing Club is open to all Villages residents, whether they own a boat or not, or have experience or not. Come, have fun, and learn about sailing, too.
Upcoming Meeting Topics
THU. APR. 10, 2025 - Commodore Ken, Cap'n Eric Lundberg, and YOU will share a half hour of laughter, tall tales, and nautical nonsense! "Old Yarns and Clew-less Sailors" is a lively mix of funny sailing stories, classic jokes, and hilariously relatable sailing mishaps. Bring your best (or worst) sailing stories and be ready to share in the fun—because the only thing smoother than a calm sea is a well-told tale!
(Please note, we do not meet in JUN, JUL or AUG.)
