Prestigious Racing Regattas
We host some of the largest and most competitive races in the region, attracting top talent from across the country.
Unspoiled Beauty
Stockton Lake is a deep, uncrowded lake with clear waters (you can see your feet when you swim!) and steady southwest winds, ranking it as a Top 10 inland sailing lake in the USA. Maintained by the Army Corps of Engineers, it features 63,200 acres of water and 298 miles of undeveloped, tree-lined shoreline.
A Season That Lasts
Our prime boating season runs from Easter to Halloween, with dedicated sailors enjoying the waters year-round.
No Boat? No Problem!
We are an open and welcoming club where all are encouraged to join, whether you’re a seasoned sailor or just starting your journey. Many of our members have raced nationally, chartered in the Caribbean, and even taught boating classes—so there’s always someone to learn from and adventure with!
