New Castle Sailing Club

New Castle Sailing Club The New Castle Sailing Club is a sailing club based in New Castle Delaware. You'll learn to sail on our fleet of sailboats.

The New Castle Sailing Club sails out of New Castle's Battery Park from the last weekend in April until the last weekend in October. The club has a fleet of 12 sailboats represented by two classes: eight 17-foot Thistles and four 19-foot Flying Scots. All of the club's sailboats are in the Delaware River on moorings during the six-month sailing season. The river at this point is over a mile wide,

with many more miles of upstream and downstream sailing space. The club offers free instruction and racing programs for club members. The New Castle Sailing Club provides an accessible and affordable sailing option to both novices and experienced sailors. See the club Website for more information.
