Our Story

Formed in 2009 by, and for, sailors in the Savannah, Georgia area the intention of the Chatham Sailing Club was to create an enhanced and well-rounded experience for sailors. Since its founding CSC has evolved into a thriving community for people of all ages and sailing ability with a passion for the sport. We provide the opportunity for members to participate in sailing activities year-round, including racing, cruising, social events, and sailing education.

Our clubhouse overlooks Turner’s Creek and offers a beautiful, quiet riverside location for club events and for members to gather and use under terms set forth by the CSC board.

Located at Young’s Marina, members receive a discounted rate for boat slips, as well.
