Welcome to Hobie Fleet 444!  Our home waters are Lake Pepin at Lake City, MN.  We're a catamaran sailing club welcoming all makes of catamarans and sailors of all abilities.  You don't even have to have a boat!  Want to experience the thrill of catamaran sailing?  You'll find a ride with this helpful bunch.

Check out our events page.  We host a Hobie "points" regatta as part of NAHCA Division 7.  Division 7 has many other races in the region.  If racing is in your blood, our division has a lot to offer.  We also host cruising events, taking advantage of Lake Pepin's 22 mile length, as well as other bodies of water that the upper mid-west has to offer.  What could be better than a day on the water followed by a barbeque and some tall tales?

Whatever your taste, we've got you covered.  The bottom line is that we love to sail.  Dig that cat out of the back 40, dust it off, and drag it on over!

Our flyer has the basic info.  Check out the rest of the site for more info.

Spring 2008 Newsletter and Our Second Season:

Our second season is upon us and we are looking forward to a great summer.  BE A PART OF IT!  We'll have another great regatta and several "fun sails" on Lake Pepin.  Come along on our destination cruising event and you've got a perfect summer of sailing.  If you aren't already a member, please join us!  We're still a small fleet but we've got a solid foundation for a great community of sailors.   Read all about it in our Spring 2008 Fleet 444 newsletter.

Next Event 

We have a Spring Tune Up / Fun Sail scheduled for Saturday, May 17.  We'll meet up at the City Yacht Club boat ramp and beach / Ohuta Park in Lake City.  This will be a casual event.  Plan to show up around 9:00.  We can rig out boats on the beach together so if an extra hand or free advice are needed there will be plenty of both.  Plan to be on the water by 10:30 or 11:00.  Conditions will dictate where we go from there. 

Make sure to check the website now and then for updates.  We've posted the 2008 calendar on the "Events" page.  And make sure to join us in June for our 2nd annual regatta!  Details and NOR are on the "Events" page.
