To all of our Sailors, come join us Sunday the 16th for a Club Sail. It is very possible that this could be our last Club Sail of the season, so you do not want to miss it! Meet us at B dock Sunday morning from 8:30am-11am.

Awesome Weather!

The warm weather has not left us yet! Chicago is experiencing an unusual weather pattern. Recently temperatures have been well above average. Typical October weather ranges in the mid 60 degrees, but this year Chicago temperatures are reaching nearly 80 degrees!

With this warm weather still here, keep in mind we do have available boats to rent. On October 15th, our larger auxiliary vessels will be departing Belmont Harbor for winter storage. However, we will still have J/22's and J/24's available to rent through the remainder of October.

Speaking of unusual weather, this winters weather predictions have been released. Meteorologists are calling for a cold winter with snowfalls well above average. The snowfall in Chicago is forecasting for 52", similar to last years winter patterns. Chicago is expected to go through the worst of this years stormy winter.

Prepare for a cold and snowy winter! Stay warm!!
