"Joining the SSP was a fantastic experience. We sailed all season long and benefited tremendously from our fellow SSP sailors' expertise. Racing on Thursday Nights was also an excellent way for us to perfect our skills and acquire new ones. Not to mention we made a lot of friends and had a blast!"

Racing Program...
There is no quicker way to hone your sailing skills than racing around the buoys with a fleet of Sharks or Tanzers. The SSP participates with the fleet on Thursday night one-design racing. Step aboard as crew with our race coach and learn advanced boat handling skills. The goal of each night is to have fun, learn something new and try to put a few boats behind us at the end of the race. Then it's back to the clubhouse for cocktails, some laughs and a great BBQ put on by the club caterers.
