Tampa Bay Area: Single? Want to go sailing? Bay Sailors is one fantastic outdoor-activity entertainment bargain. Membership entitles you to go sailing twice a month, all day, overnights, and they have longer overseas trips too.
You must be single. If you don't know how to sail they will teach you. You do not need to own a boat. We have been members for years. Best money we spend on outdoor activities each year. So get out on the water, feel the wind in your hair!
