Chautauqua Lake Community Sailing Foundation
Teaching the community to sail, race, and love the sport of sailing!
Welcome to the CLCSF, where our goal is to provide an easy and affordable way for everyone to enjoy sailing on Lake Chautauqua. We focus on High School team racing, as well as youth through adult sailing courses and education. CLCSF is a Non-profit Community-based organization founded in 2015. Our boats are located just off of Lakewood Beach in Lakewood, NY.
Fall Sailing and Regattas
Summer has come to an end and CLCSF will begin removing our Precisions to winter storage. You will now see our High School sailing teams out on the water for practices every weekday up until November. We will also be hosting our own annual Fall Jamboree Regatta on September 26th – feel free to come down and watch the races from Lakewood Park.
From now until the end of November, 420 and Opti racing is our focus. The high school fall season ends around mid-November.
The fall Opti clinic will continue on Tuesdays and Sundays as long as good weather continues and should conclude by the end of October.
CLCSF is very excited to be saying goodbye to our Z420 fleet this year – our 12 colorful boats located on our floating dock and that have been aiding our youth sailors every year since 2015. Look for our brand new fleet of E420s, complete with familiar and new color sails, to be on the water next spring!
As always, life jackets are available to all participants. We have adult sizes from Small to XXL, however Child sizes are not available so if your sailor is under 10 years old please ask and we will go over options with you.
More information on the current programs can be found on our Programs page. Don’t forget you can register online!
CLCSF proudly coaches and supports all local area high school sailing teams. Contact us if you’re interested in sailing for your high school. Not sure if you’re ready to join the team? That’s OK! Come down and sit in on a practice or two; interested sailors are always welcome at any time to see what it’s all about and improve your skills.
