Established February 18, 1938, the club has a long history of sponsoring inshore, distance and offshore sailboat races, and supporting the interests and needs of sailors. The club is headquartered in Larchmont, New York, and operates through local stations across the United States. Each station serves as the organizing authority and host for a number of racing, social and junior events for its members and other sailors, both on the water and ashore. The club has been in the vanguard of development of new events, handicap rating systems, yacht design, safety procedures, and new rum drinks. The club insignia is proudly displayed by members on the club burgee, on special articles and clothing available only to members, and also seen on clothing sold to sailors participating in club events.

A finish worth racing toward. 🦐⛵

They call it the “Race to the Buffet” for a reason! After a day of offshore racing, the Sailfish Club of Florida’s legendary seafood buffet, reception, and awards await.

Join us December 4 for the 70th Wirth M. Munroe Ocean Race. Bring your boat, gather your crew, and come hungry.

Last night at the Newport Art Museum, Storm Trysail Club member Erica Lush shared an inside look at her remarkable journey training and competing in France in the Solitaire du Figaro.

From the challenges of solo offshore racing to the dedication, preparation, and perseverance required to compete at this level, Erica gave attendees a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at two years immersed in one of sailing’s most demanding disciplines.

We’re proud to have Erica representing the Storm Trysail Club burgee on the international stage and grateful to everyone who joined us for an inspiring evening of sailing stories and conversation.

Thank you, Erica, for sharing your experience with us!

Beautiful water. A demanding week of racing.

The 2027 ORC North American Offshore Championships will test the whole team, with eight races scheduled:

🌊 Six windward/leeward races
🌊 One coastal race
🌊 One offshore race through the Florida Straits

The coastal race counts 1.5 times and the offshore race counts double—with neither eligible to be discarded. Preparation, navigation, endurance, and boat handling will all have a role in deciding the champions.

Join Storm Trysail Club and SORC in Fort Lauderdale November 14–20, 2027.

A good read featuring from our friends at the Cruising Club of America. Many Storm Trysail Club members helped compile the report but every offshore sailor should read it because you never know if you might be the rescuer.

Your boat could be the one answering a Mayday. Would your crew know what to do?

A new Cruising Club of America report examines **28 real yacht-to-yacht crew rescues**, sharing practical lessons for sailors who may be the nearest—or only—boat able to help.

From calling for assistance and agreeing on a rescue plan to transferring people safely and caring for them afterward, the report explores decisions worth thinking through before an emergency.

Developed with US Sailing and the Bermuda Race Foundation, the report includes a foreword by Kirsten Neuschäfer, who rescued fellow Golden Globe Race competitor Tapio Lehtinen.

Read it. Share it with your crew. Make it part of your passage preparation.

47 teams. Two very different days. One unforgettable weekend. ⛵️

From Saturday’s sunshine and light breeze to Sunday’s strong winds and torrential rain, the Long Island Sound IOR brought teamwork, determination, and plenty of adventure.

One sailor told us Sunday was the best day of his college sailing career. Cue the happy tears. 🥹

That’s why we do this. For 25 years, boat owners, Safety Officers, and volunteers have shared their boats, time, and knowledge to help college sailors discover where sailing can take them. We couldn’t be prouder of every team that took on this weekend.
