Welcome...


TASCA is a non-profit club with the goal of introducing the sport of sailing to the general public.  We work in cooperation with the New York City Department of Parks and Recreation to provide inexpensive basic sailing lessons to anyone interested. No prior sailing experience is necessary and passing a swim test is the only prerequisite to taking the class.

Our 2008 summer class is booked to capacity. If you are interested in being placed on our 2009 waiting list, e-mail us by clicking here: info@sailtasca.org; or call us at 718-699-1951.

 After completing the course, students are invited to join TASCA's sailing club. Membership entitles you to:

  • Free sailing on Meadow Lake
  • Sail the Long Island Sound on the club's 28-foot sloop and 32-foot schooner (for a small fee!)
  • Advanced sailing courses.
  • Join in group charters, called "Rendezvous"

2008 is TASCA's 41st year!!!!
