The Texas A&M Sailing Team is a student organization devoted to
developing students' sailing abilities through practice and competition.
The team has existed at A&M since 1990 as part of the Recreational
Sports Program. It is entirely run and coached by dedicated students.
We hold practice every Tuesday and Thursday at around 3:30PM but encourage
those who can't make it one those days to practice Monday, Wednesday
or Friday.
Our facility is located at Lake Bryan, which is about 10 minutes from
campus.
Almost every weekend of the school year we compete in regattas sailing
420s, Lasers, and FJs.
The team has nine Vanguard 420s, three Laser's, and two FJs, which are
kept at our complex at Lake Bryan. Several team members own their own
Lasers that they use for practice and competitions. We use host teams'
FJs, and 420s at out-of-town regattas.
We compete in the Southeastern Intercollegiate Sailing Association (SEISA)
which includes such schools as University of Texas, University of Kansas,
Oklahoma State, University of Oklahoma, Texas A&M Galveston, and
University of South Alabama.
We encourage all who want to join to contact a team member and come
out to the lake to sail.
If you have no previous knowledge of sailing, it's OKAY, we
will teach you!
