Background
The club was formed in 1992 by a group of sailors who owned sailboats in the Sugarloaf Harbour Marina, and Marlon Marina This was for the purpose of organizing cruising, social activities and racing. The following year the Sailing School was started using two dinghies donated by the Rotary Club of Port Colborne. Since then we have enlarged the fleet to six CL-14 dinghies. The club is non-profit with a mandate to promote the sport of sailing, and seamanship. The club became incorporated on August 2, 2000 as a non profit corporation. This step was taken as the most logical structure on which to advance our mandate and goals. We are a small but vital and keen club with a current membership of 32 families, operating boats of various types in the 22 to 40 ft range.
