Imagine…

All the fun of sailing without the stress of boat ownership!
Sail Capri 22’s and Catalina 27’s without the hassle of dock fees, maintenance and all of the other obligations that go into keeping your own boat in shape. 

Sail in the California Delta - 1,000 miles of waterway, mostly navigable to sailboats, rugged and beautiful with abundant wildlife and warm, almost tropical climates in the summer months.

Learn to sail, or upgrade your skills with American Sailing Association (ASA) Certified instructors.

 

ASA curriculum classes are taught on most weekends. Check our Calendar for details! When you’ve passed an ASA course, you can be officially ASA certified.  At Club Rio you can become ASA certified at the following levels:

• Basic Keelboat

• Basic Coastal Cruising

• Bareboat Charter

• Coastal Navigation

For members interested in future vacation sailboat charters, these certifications are recognized and respected by charter companies around the world.
