Take a sailing vacation on Arkansas' larger lakes, where sailing can be a spectator's sport or a great way to explore the state's beautiful lakes. Although most marinas do not offer sailboat charters or rentals, an exception is Jolly Roger's Marina on Lake Maumelle. The sailing port is located off Ark. 10, on Maumelle Harbor Road, 13 miles west of Little Rock and I-430. Jolly Roger's offers charter services and sailing lessons.
Find a yacht club and sailing club on Lake Maumelle, Greers Ferry Lake, Beaver Lake and DeGray Lake. They schedule regattas for centerboards, catamarans and keelboats; stage annual social events and awards banquets for members, publish newsletters, maintain websites, and conduct meetings. Persons wanting to view the beauty and grandeur of a sailing regatta may view each club's calendar of events, via their websites, and plan a lakeshore outing.
