All cruises are open to Windjammer Sailing Club members and their friends. This year, the Cruise Committee will arrange six cruises that range from one day to several days. These cruises are organized, planned, and led by a cruise coordinator. Contact the coordinator to let them know your joining.
If you’re unable to join us for the cruise, meet us at the destination or board one of the participating sailboats. Stay in touch with the coordinator for updates on estimated arrival times and cruising sailboats.

We encourage members to organize and plan their own cruises. If you wish to have other boats join you, the Cruise Committee will help by informing members of your cruise details and itinerary.
Future Plans:
- Create marina and anchorage reports
- Arrange cruising educational seminars
- Promote floatillas
