About UsThe Louisville Sailing Club was established in 1955 and its riverfront properties were purchased at this same time. Charter members numbered seventeen persons, most of whom were formerly members of Louisville Turners. Their purpose in founding the club is described in the Articles of Incorporation: |
![]() SunFish FleetOur Sunfish fleet is one of our longest running and most popular fleets at the club in recent history. Every Tuesday during the season, dozens of sailors launch for a 6pm starting gun. Sunfish are single-handed one-design racing board-boats. Fast, fun, affordable, and scalable for all skill levels. Try it on of our club sunfishes! | Force 5 Fleet
Force 5's are LCS's newest and fastest growing fleet! Similar to Lasers, Force 5s are fast, nimble, and exciting one-design single-handed racing board-boats. Every Sunday, our sailors launch for a 11am starting gun.
| ![]() Thistle FleetThistles hold a strong legacy at LSC as one of our oldest and longest running fleets. Thistles are typically crewed by 2-3 sailors, have main sail, jib (head sail) and even fly spinnakers. Our Thistle sailors launch every Saturday for 2pm starting gun races. Jump on as crew or take out one of our club Thistles to give it a try! |

We take the river serious, and so should any mariner looking for a fun or sporty day out on the water. Know your experience level, plan accordingly, follow USCG regulations and warnings. Plan ahead, stay safe, and have fun! |
