About Louisville Sailing Club

 to promote sailing in all its branches for its members!

Throughout the years, the foremost sailing interest of the majority of active members has been directed to the racing of centerboard sailboats of various one-design classes. Thus, major activities of the club center around the races scheduled every Tuesday, Saturday and Sunday afternoon, June through October. Race results are compiled for the season for a presentation of trophies at the annual awards banquet in November. Annual invitational one-design regattas are sponsored by the several club fleets.

The club welcomes “social sailing” and hosts social activities throughout the year and celebrates the national holidays. Sailing lessons and instructions in the rules of sailboat racing are occasionally conducted by club members.

From the beginning, club membership has consisted mostly of families, and the minimal membership dues are made possible because each member contributes manual labor towards the maintenance and improvements of club properties. Likewise, dry docking fees are among the lowest on the river and vary according to the Length Over All (LOA) and Length at Water Line (LWL) of the individual boat. You are welcome to submit a membership application for review.

LSC's guiding principles:

> to promote sailing in all its branches for its members

> to provide a meeting place and other facilities for club members and their boats

> to foster a spirit of good fellowship among the members


Active Fleets

The Fleets of the Louisville Sailing Club are primarily one-design centerboard and board boats.

Current active fleets include:


    Flying Scot
    Force 5
    Highlander
    Sunfish
    Thistle
    Y-flyer

In addition, there are a mix of boats that join in for handicap racing or just simply day sailing.

Typically, centerboard boats are kept on cradles or trailers and are launched by electric hoist while the board boats are launched off the edge of the sea wall by hand.
