Benefits of VISA Membership

Learning to Sail

Each year VISA hosts weekend long sailing camps for women, men, and youth . These weekends offer a friendly, relaxed environment to learn the basics of sailing. See our Sail Camp page for more information.

Racing

VISA holds sailing races year round and participates in races with other yacht clubs. Races are for all classes of boats using a handicap system.

Boat Slips and Storage

VISA's protected cove features boat slips and moorings for members' keelboats. Shore power, water and a dumping station are available. We also have dry sail sites, two launch ramps, a rail lift for hull repairs, and tool sheds, with electricity and water at all work locations.

Camping

VISA's camp sites are located near our clubhouse so people can enjoy camping with the convenience of kitchen, bath and shelter facilities nearby. We offer members long-term camping sites for trailers, pop-ups, tent camping and spaces for short-term camping.

Clubhouse

VISA's clubhouses provide wonderful views of the lake and feature 2 kitchens, a community room, a large deck with an outdoor cooking space and bathrooms with full shower facilities.

Beach

Our private beach offers safe swimming and wading in shallow water protected by our cove. In addition, our beach serves as a great place to launch Lasers and other racked sailboats.

Comradery

VISA is a member-run club, which means that all members volunteer their time, talents, and skills to maintain our campus, manage the club, and host events. This allows us to develop strong friendships and support each others' sailing, social, and camping adventures.
