Crew List May 1st to October 1st Annually. Please check back in the Spring

How does the crew list work? You start by filling out the crew list form. The form contains your contact information, your preferences in sailing and any qualifications that you may have. By the way, we encourage beginners to submit their names to the crew list. Many skippers prefer training someone new rather than trying to get rid of "bad" habits of "experienced" crew. We also encourage skippers to try out new crew members. Like most sports we like to get new people involved. The skippers meetings take place day of race at 10:00 am at the hoist in the Tahoe Keys marina. This may present a potential crew member with the opportunity to get on a boat.

The Racing Crew List When filling out your experience try not to oversell yourself because it will be come apparent soon after you start what your real qualifications are. You can select as many crew positions as you want. This is the most active crew list and it can get you on a boat quickly. We encourage novices to post. You would be surprised how many skippers would prefer an enthusiastic novice over someone with experience.

The Cruising Crew List If your looking to sail and meet some new friends, this is the list for you. Experience is less important than for racing and it's a good way to get your feet wet, so to speak. When a skipper contacts you to go sailing, it's a good idea to ask him about his experience. You don't want to go out as a novice with a novice skipper. Skippers appreciate it if you volunteer to bring food or drink along for the sail. Signup to crew or find crew on our Crew List page or you can contact Jerry Starky @ 530.577.5210 for further info. Please keep the following in mind when filling out the Crew List: It's better to understate your experience than overstate it.
