SailPast 2025

Location: JSCA – Viking Sailing Club area (NW Corner)
Date: 2025-06-21

Sailing skills are tested as dinghies jockey for position to scoop up glasses of champagne handed out from our flagship Tyra.

Dry clothes, more refreshments, and dinner follow the mayhem on the high seas. It’s a very good time and highly recommended!
