It just doesn’t get better than this!
You are invited to join active adventurers like you – who love the water and great outdoors. You’ll enjoy hassle-free access to our beautiful club boats and the freedom to set sail whenever you like!
Exclusive to sailors and those who want to learn, the Club offers programs to give you skills and confidence at less than half normal tuitions from America’s #1 Sailing School®.
Sailing is your ticket to a lifetime of happiness – in Florida or wherever the wind blows. You’ll harness clean, free energy powered by wind; exercise brain and body and nurture your soul.
The Club is all about having fun! Whether you are full-time or part-time, working or retired, this Club is for you! And so is our fleet of award-winning Colgate 26 sailboats – fast, fun, safe and ergonomically friendly.
Our Club location offers grand sailing in the Gulf of Mexico, with great accommodations ashore at the beautiful Pink Shell Beach Resort & Spa for Club members who’d like to spend a night or two while reveling in the joys of sailing on a mini vacation close to home.
Fees for joining the Club are based on individual, couples or family memberships. Join for a minimum of four months or a full year and share sailing with new friends or your family alone.
Ultimate freedom is yours when you join the Club. Yes, we’ve said this before – but we can’t emphasize enough how much fun you’ll have staying close to home and getting away for a couple of hours or more whenever you like.
Now – before you read on, find our hidden message in this announcement (hint – start at the beginning) and you’ll win a $100 gift certificate to use towards your sailing course! Send your answer to info@offshoresailing.com.
