Sail Fast. Lounge Hard.
We are a crew of beach cats, daysailors, lake lovers, and power loungers who gather throughout the summer for wind, water, and weekend fun.
Utah Sailing Association
Who We Are
The Utah Sailing Association is a crew of recreational sailors united by a love of wind, water, and good times. Most of us race beach catamarans from Hobie, NACRA, and Prindle—but you'll also spot Lasers, Sabots, monohulls, and the occasional eccentric creation cruising by.
What We Do
We host laid-back regattas, lakeside campouts, and spontaneous sunset sails. At Bear Lake, we always share a potluck dinner, gather around a beach bonfire, and play games like horseshoes and paddle board races. Whether you're racing hard or just here for the snacks, you're in good company.
Where We Sail
Bear Lake is our home port, but we follow the wind to great sailing spots all across Utah. From Pineview to Sand Hallow and everywhere in between, we're always ready to launch, lounge, and laugh wherever the breeze takes us.
Come Sail With Us!
We host a handful of core events each year, including camping weekends, casual races, beach
dinners, and laid-back lake hangs. Our Bear Lake events feature a community potluck, a cozy bonfire under
the stars, and games like paddle board races, horseshoes, or even a beachside movie to keep the fun
going off the water. Whether you're a seasoned sailor or just looking for a fun weekend with good
people, our events are open to all.
Notice: If you are bringing a boat or anything that floats be sure to
take the DNR aquatic
invasive species test in advance.
