Exclusively for Cohasset residents since 1960

As it seems everyone walks that way anyway, CSC has decided to extend our brick walkway next to our sail shed to the parking lot. As we did a decade ago, we invite you to add a personalized engraved brick to be placed in this new walkway extension.

Please click here for more information on how to order a brick for this walkway through Bricks R Us!

Your donations are greatly appreciated!

FREE SAILING - HELMSMAN TEST
Our fleet of sailboats are available to use during free sail. We require that those who skipper pass a Helmsman Test.
In order to take out a sailboat after lessons one must demonstrate competency. A written test as well as a demonstration of rigging, docking and sailing upwind must be validated at the club by an instructor.
A pfd must be worn at all times. Check in with the instructor on duty who will help set you up as needed.

Clubhouse Rental

Founders' Hall is available for rent during the months of March, April, May, September, October, November and December. The executive committee has decided that the clubhouse will no longer be available for rent in January and February. In addition, the clubhouse is not rented during sailing season, June, July and August. Our event manager is available to answer any questions.

NEW TO THE CLUB

Hi! We want you to know a few things so you can determine if becoming members of the Cohasset Sailing Club is right for your family. First, you must be a resident of Cohasset to join the club. We've offered sailing lessons to Cohasset youth and adults for over 60 years.
All children must have completed 4th grade (rising 5th graders) to begin their participation in the sailing program. This is a 6 year YOUTH SAILING Program (Sailor, Mate, Skipper, Captain, 2 year Race Team).

Our ADULT SAILING Program is open to adult (18 and older) Cohasset residents. We will offer an 8 week session for 10 registrants on consecutive Saturday mornings during the sailing season. If registration is full, please add your name to the wait list option in your account under adult sailing.
