A Brief Description...

Sail Boats

If you like the technical aspects of sailing, tactics needed to race, or just enjoy the beauty of Sailboats we have it! The Club holds yacht racing events within the club and attends racing regattas with other boat clubs in Arizona. TMYC actively supports one AMYA Sanctioned class of racing sail boats but we are considering adding other classes:
bullet EC-12 Class
bullet Soling One Meter
bulletInternational One Meter

Scale Boats

For the individual who likes to get down to the "nuts and bolts" of building model boats to scale, this is the division. Scale boating offers the fun and challenge of building and sailing anything from a small sail boat to large schooners. So if you have any size sail boat bring it along and lets see it. You can talk to people with the same interests and fine out about the latest and greatest in building technique's.
