Corinthian Sailing Club
White Rock Lake, Dallas, TX
Established 1939
The Corinthian Sailing Club is located within a city park on beautiful White Rock Lake in Dallas, Texas. CSC was chartered in 1939. From the beginning, the purpose of CSC has been to promote the sport of sailing and sailboat racing in North Texas. The all volunteer club focuses on racing with a well attended racing program and club sponsored regattas held year round. The club is nationally known for its excellent sailors and fine race management. The club also has an active youth program and teaches adult sailing. The club sponsors several charitable events and many social activities each year.
CSC hosted the 2023 US Sailing Championship of Champions Regatta 10/20-22 in Dragonflite 95 boats. 12 competitors completed 16 races in light winds. Peter Feldman, the current Dragonflite 95 national champion, won the event. CSC's Robert Cummings placed 9th overall; he qualified for the regatta as the current Flying Scot Master's Champion. US Sailing's writeup on the regatta and full results are available here.
CSC hosted another successful Rock the Rock Regatta last weekend with 60 boats from across Texas and Oklahoma. 14 CSC sailors raced, many in their first regatta. Jason Adams ran the ILCA course with 24 boats in two fleets; Steve Benenson ran the Opti RWB course, and John "Popsicle Man" Weston did his usual amazing job with the Opti Green fleet.
