Wild winds and crazy rain at Chicago Sailing

Today at Chicago Sailing we were treated to some of Chicago's notoriously quick changing weather. We had heavy, heavy rain and some wild thunderstorms. Here you can see the rain pouring down by the bucket load. It was too wet to move so we stayed inside the houseboat watching the great natural display.


After the rain stopped we walked up to the underpass at Lakeshore Drive only to see this. The pass was flooded with some cars stalled out with their doors nearly covered up.

Kicking off the Summer

What a better way to start the summer than a day on the water? These 5 friends are getting ready to head out for another beautiful summer day on to the lake. Here at Chicago Sailing we sometimes may be a little short on wind, but we are never short on fun!



5 big boats all lined up on the dock, what a shame! These boats were meant for cruising, not sitting.

Empty Docks at Chicago Sailing....

Today was a wonderful day for a sail, upon our return to the dock we realised that we had a practically empty dock. This is great for everyone, our dock staff are happy as they can catch up on some workshop and maintenance work while our office staff have time to continue with our scheduling. The instructors love it as they are on the boats out on the water.
