The Club - Established in 1965

Thank you for your interest in Windycrest Sailing Club. Many members feel it's the best club anywhere. It's a terrific mix of keelboats, centerboard boats, racing cruising, and social events that offers something for all sailors. Lots of clubs can tout facilities, size, location, price, amenities and so forth. Windycrest stands with the best of the m, but what sets us apart and is our most important asset, the membership itself. Club members contribute their time an d skills to better the club. All improvements and events are planned and executed by the membership. It is a special re lationship between the club, the members, and the individual. This "Windycrest Spirit" -a helpful, friendly, responsible can do attitude- that past and current members exude started back in 1965 and has built Windycrest into the special plac e that it is today.
