Welcome to the Marathon Sailing Club
We are a club of sailors who enjoy the warm waters of the Marathon area from December thru May. We sail a variety of boats. These include Sunfish sailing at various locations around the Keys and match racing. We race radio controlled Victorias and one design CR-914 sailboats. Each year we hold an invitational CR-914 regatta. Occasionally we day-cruise on 20-40ft. boats. Each season, we take kayaking trips through the nearby Keys and mangroves. Of course, we also have the occasional cocktail party and as well as special social events.
Our members are a combination of fulltime residents of the Keys and "Snowbird" sailors that enjoy sailing and friendships during the cooler months. Some of our members have their own boats and the club also has boats to share. To learn more about joining us, please play our videos to learn about us and go to the website's "About Our Club" page.
Always feel free to contact me.....Colin Parker, Commodore, Captcparker@yahoo.com
