FOSTERING THE NEXT GENERATION OF CHAMPION SAILORS

Florida Yacht Club has year-round sailing opportunities for all levels ages 6 to 18. Our Fall session typically begins right after Labor Day and goes through Daylight savings time in the Fall. Spring Sailing generally begins at daylight savings time in the Spring and continues through the Cowford Cup Regatta hosted annually by FYC in May. Please see below for program details and feel free to contact our Waterfront Director, Dustin Domer with any questions.
