Sailing at OGYC

Everyone has a first day of sailing, and many of us are immediately hooked.  At Old Greenwich Yacht Club the sailing skill of our members ranges from beginner to advanced and we focus on educational opportunities for those want to learn or improve. 

Through our affiliate, Greenwich Community Sailing, the club offers classes and rentals with discounts for OGYC members. OGYC also offers free sailing lessons on Saturday mornings for members who need to fine tune their skills.  Basic sailing techniques to advanced racing tactics are covered. 

OGYC has a fleet of six Ideal 18s and two Cape Cod Mercurys for use by members who complete a certification program.  The Women's Sailing program utilizes the fleet every Thursday during the season and the Ideals are used for a robust racing program with other Yacht Clubs in the area.
