Here's how it works:

  1. Purchase a membership online, by phone or in person and immediately begin using the SUPs, kayaks and coming to Social Sails (Social Sails are for adult members age 18+, only), no sailing experience necessary. 
  2. Upon joining, call the office to obtain the combo to unlock equipment and to learn about the equipment check-out process. It is simple. We do not have to be present for you to use our equipment.
  3. Sailors can get their "skipper check-out" during a Social Sail on Wednesdays at 4:30pm or Saturdays at 9:00am or 1:00pm (dates/times may vary due to weather). Your skipper check-out is based on your sailing ability so if you do not know how to sail or if you are a beginner it may take you some time to get qualified.
  4. Once skipper qualified, you can check out a Sunfish or a Flying Scot on your own for open sailing. "Open sailing" is unsupervised sailing outside of scheduled events. During open sailing you may take guests along with you on the Flying Scot free of charge.
  5. If you have taken one or our Learn to Sail classes, you are immediately qualified to use the Sunfish. You will need to learn how to rig it.
  6. Beginner sailors are encouraged to take our Learn to Sail class ($330) in addition to attending Social Sails. 
  7. Members can bring guests on the SUPs and kayaks for $15 per guest.
  8. Members can bring adult guests to Social Sails. If the same guest attends more than once, we ask that the guest purchase a Membership. Each Social Sail is limited to two member invited guests total. 
  9. There is NO swimming/jumping from the dock.
