“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” — Mark Twain


We have such a wonderful opportunity at EYC for all ages to learn to sail or to improve your sailing skills. Join Us!
