Welcome Aboard!
The Seven Lakes Sailing Club is a group of Seven Lakes residents who have an interest in sailing. We organize a program of events that includes, learn-to-sail courses, informal sailing events for non-sailors, social activities, and sailboat races around defined courses on beautiful Lake Auman. The racing events are run with all sizes of sailing boats using the Portsmouth handicap system. Our social events include a variety of on-the-water and shoreside activities. The club also includes many pontoon boat and powerboat members who have interests in sailing and in our social activities. You don’t need to have a boat to join and enjoy the sailing and social events of the club. Membership fee for a family is $25 per year. For more information contact the Club Commodore, Bob Fewkes at commodore.slsc@gmail.com.

Also this year, the Seven Lakes Sailing Club organized the parade of decorated boats on July 4th. Stan Makson led the parade around the lake going from cove to cove. A wonderful tradition on Lake Auman! See more photos here.
