Tahoe Yacht Club's sailing program is filled with activities for all classes, from novices to "old salts."

And for those who are "between boats," there are always plenty of crewing opportunities. Regattas are conducted under the US Sailing Association's Racing Rules of Sailing (RRS). The spirit of competition may be serious, but camaraderie and corinthian spirit prevail over all events held on the "Lake in the Sky."

PHRF Information can be found under the Community section of this website.

Events

  • Laser Regatta Series

    • This growing class sets sail on Monday evenings at 6:00 p.m., off Lake Forest near the U.S. Coast Guard Station Tahoe. The Spring Series runs from Memorial Day for seven Mondays until mid-July; Summer Series goes another seven Mondays until late August. There are a total of 14 weeks of racing in both a spring and summer series with some Olympic competitors in the fleet. This is a great opportunity for the young at heart or strong of body to enjoy an organized regatta format with lots of fun, both on and off the water.
