Welcome to CBC
Bristol sailboats on the Chesapeake Bay is the Club’s nostalgic heritage and building our Bristol fleet continues to be a Club goal. Membership is open to all who enjoy sailing or listening to old salts spinning yarns. The CBC is a social and sailing club with no clubhouse, a year-around calendar of events, and cost of membership is minimal. To be a member you don’t have to own a Bristol (or any boat). Dues are still only $45 per year. We would welcome the opportunity to introduce you to CBC members and answer questions you may have. Cruise the CBC website (www.cbclub.info) to view the calendar, our club log, joining details, RSVP to join us on any events during the year. Use the email link on the “Joining” page to reach Membership Director Rebecca Burka.

Here is a home-built ice boat. Originally the steering was in the stern . However, gusts of wind caused the boat to frequently weathervane, The boat was altered to forward steering to eliminate the problem.
