Event difficulty Rating: 3 of 10 - Sailing In Tampa Bay (Possible Windy/Stormy Weather conditions causing sea sickness)
Background Information: We will be sailing and dining on a 41ft Hunter sailing Yacht. Tampa Bay is beautiful to sail, and is one of Florida's most popular day-sailing destinations. Join the skipper, David and his crew as they sail you across Tampa Bay on a beautiful yacht to a great seafood restaurant and bar right on the water, then returns for another afternoon sail back to the Yacht club. Of course no sailing event is complete without a nice glass of wine, which is why we provide complimentary white and red wine for members who attend.
The Skipper: The event's skipper, has been sailing for 15+ years, has owned multiple sailing vessels and power boats, taught sailing lessons for more than 5 years and has sailed the Gulf of Mexico solo. He currently holds a Coast Guard approved boating license, and Florida boaters safety course graduate.

“ Beautiful Day!!! A bit chilly, but didn't keep hundreds of other sailboats off the water including the final day of the St Pete Yacht Club Regatta. Saw dolphins and learned a little about sailing from Captain Dave and his First Mate Stan. Would definitely recommend this adventure! Can't beat the Value!!! ”
“ I had a fabulous time. This was my first sailing experience and I loved it. It was good to be around some down to earth people and have some fun. Can't wait to do it again. ”
“ We had a sweet time on Valentines Day. It was a gorgeous boat, smooth sail and really nice lunch. T.A.G. people are always interesting and this was no exception. ”
“ What a amazing way to spend Valentines day. Weather was a bit cold, but a relatively calm Tampa Bay made for a very relaxing day. Lunch was fantastic, and special thank you to Dave and Stan for making us all feel like family. ”
