Fleet Upgrade
We are in the process of completely rebuilding our Ensign fleet with new floors, woodwork, rubrails, hull and deck paint, new deck hardware, to the point that they are better than new.
Ensign Racing
Ensign Racing is an enormous success this season with 5 boats racing. A great time with lots of laughs and learning. Please visit our News page for details on 2008 Ensign Racing.
Teak & Mahogany Comfort
The warm teak or varnished mahogany woodwork in the cockpit is a welcome change from the all-fiberglass construction of modern boats, and the strong hull means you never have to worry about running aground or other minor mishaps.
We own 7 Ensigns, and will add more as our program grows. Ensigns use clean, quiet electric motors to get you off the dock and bring you back if the wind dies. All Ensigns have roller furling jibs and Dutchman self-flaking mains, with all lines in easy reach of the skipper for easy singlehanding. Ensigns are sailed within 2 nautical miles of the Norwalk Islands, a 6-mile-long chain of 9 major islands, and many smaller ones. Our base is in the center of these islands. Most of the islands are nature preserves.
All Daysailers have VHF radios for calling in or for the latest marine weather reports, depth recorders, Porta Pottie toilets, swim ladders, first aid kits, charts, and all the standard USCG safety equipment.
Reservation Scheduling
Weekend and holiday Daysailer use is scheduled into 4-hour time periods, from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm, from 1:30 pm to 5:30 pm, and from 6:00 pm to sunset. Other requests can often be accommodated, especially on afternoons or weekdays.
