The Adult Sabot group, known as "The Briny Bunch", is a large group of enthusiastic adult sabot sailors. We sponsor Sabot only racing events, as well as participating in Club sponsored regattas such as the Twilights and Sunkist Series'. We encourage novice sailors, providing classes and practice sessions, as well as many opportunities to discuss tactics and challenges.
