The spillway ramp is open at 695 feet.
The lake is at 808' elevation on 1 June.
The current elevation (June 1 is above 808 feet and stable. Hoorah! Once water deliveries take their toll the lakes will begin a precipitous drop. Still, all the ramps are now open and the sailing is good. Get on the water while it lasts!

Welcome to the Butte Sailing Clubwebsite. We‘re a friendly group of sailors. We emphasize recreational sailing and club-level racing. Our boats are trailerable and range in size from ten to twenty-four feet. We emphasize that sailing should be fun. Our focus is on sailing well while helping one another. Water safety is our club‘s first priority.

In short, the Butte Sailing Club is a place to learn about sailing, engage in spirited racing, and enjoy one another‘s company both on and off the water. Consider joining us at any of our events. There is a minimal membership fee ($10 per year). Guests boats and crew are welcome at any event without charge. We encourage prospective members with sailboats of all types, as well as those who may be just looking at this terrific way to spend time.

Regardless of where you are, feel free to contact this site for help in rigging or restoring your sailboat. We have been able to help many residents of Northern California get their boats in the water.


Club Rules

Rule #1: Any day on the water is better than a day ashore.
Rule #2: The best boat is the one with you in it.
