Boats and Facilities
We sail at
Lake Wauburg, about 20 minutes south of campus. At the lake's North Park, we have a fleet of 13 boats consisting of ten 1999 Vanguard 420's sitting on a floating dock and 3 FJ's on the grass. We also have access to the fleet of ten Lasers maintained by the Lake.

Spring semester we will be working on Team Racing during Thursday's practices. Team Racing is a 3 on 3 or 2 on 2 race (two schools) with winning based on the combinations of finishes as a team. To achieve good combo's, teams use various sailing rules/strategies which can be found in the team racing call book -> http://www.sailing.org/9514.php
Team racing lessons will take place at the end of future meetings.
OLD SOUTH was held at Lake Wauburg on February 28
