Radio control sailors and scalers in the Phoenix metropolitan area are only separated by geography: sailing boats in different, often distant parts of the region and coming together for regattas or scale events. This WVRCM SailRC.club and ScaleRC.club site tries to keep us all connected by acting as a central bulletin board and membership meeting spot.
Regular EventsDuring much of the year, WVRCM has fun sailing for a couple hours each week on Tuesdays at "Lake Gary" in Surprise. DF95s and SeaWinds are the most common boats. Because of unfriendly Arizona summer heat, we're now asking for you to register if you plan to attend. Here's a link to register. There is no sailing until our monthly meeting on Saturday, June 1 at Tierra Verde Lake in Litchfield Park. Other RC sailing in the Phoenix area happens at these spots: Gilbert Model Yacht Club: Starting at 9am, Tuesday-DF95; Wednesday-Victoria; Thursday-SeaWind; Saturday, DF95. Sun City Model Yacht Club: Sailing at Viewpoint Lake from noon to about 3pm Sundays and Thursdays. Here's the club''s new website. Sailing Tuesdays at Sun Village Pima Lake starting at 12:30. Entering the gate at the Village, tell them you're there to sail with Ron Burns. Leisure World Tillerman Sailing Club: Focusing on Marbleheads and 36s and racing on Sundays.
