➤ Nestled in the mountains of Western Maryland, Deep Creek Lake Sailing Association (also known as Deep Creek Yacht Club at Turkey Neck) is a center of summer activities, where its members enjoy weekend sailboat racing on Deep Creek Lake, as well as a full schedule of social activities.  Members actively volunteer to keep the club humming.  Sound fun?  Stop in, contact a member, or see our page for prospective members.
➤ New or rusty sailors, both juniors and adults, are encouraged take lessons with the excellent instructors at Deep Creek Sailing School. You do not need to own a boat to take lessons.
➤ Deep Creek Yacht Club welcomes all sailors of any skill level to come out and race.  A separate but closely affiliated organization, DCYRA, runs the races for both sailing clubs at Deep Creek (Turkey Neck and Deerhaven at Thousand Acres).  Races are held on weekends and Wednesday evenings, June through September -- with separate starts for Gold, Silver, Master’s, and Challenger fleets in Flying Scots, as well as a start for Lasers.
​
If you already own a Scot and would like to try racing, please join the Challenger fleet, where the emphasis is on fun and learning. Experienced skippers are available to assist with your first races. For further information please send an email to DCYRA, or register for the fleet online. 

For those interested in serving as crew for an active racing boat, please subscribe to the DCYRA email list and let other members know of your availability. Subscribe here.
