Activities
Sea Cliff Yacht Club is a member of the United
States Sailing Association and the Yachting
Racing Association of Long Island Sound. Sailing is conducted all
year, although the summer season (Memorial Day to Labor Day) is the period of
greatest activity. Two large launches provide daily service from May to
early November for yachts moored in the anchorage. One-design racing is
held primarily on weekends.

crew, so members don't necessarily need to own their own vessels to
enjoy yachting. The Club's Ideal 18s, which are available to
members on a time-share basis, for racing and recreational day cruising.
Adult sailing instruction is also available. During the
off-season (November to March), "Frostbite" Sunfish class
racing is conducted on a regular basis. |
