U.S. Mariner Class Association

The Mariner is a 19 foot laminated fiberglass sloop first manufactured by George O'Day in 1963, and currently produced by Stuart Marine. Over 4000 boats have been constructed to date. The US Mariner Class Association was founded in 1966 with the following objectives:

To keep the boat safe.
To encourage its use as a family boat.
To maintain the Mariner as an economical one design Class.

The Association remains very active with an elected board of Class Officers, and 14 Fleet Captains located throughout the US. Local sailing activities are coordinated by the Fleet Captains and include cruising and racing. On a National level, the Championship Regatta is held annually and provides an opportunity for members to test their racing skills and enjoy the camaraderie of their fellow Mariner sailors.

New members are always welcome. We are so sure you will enjoy the benefits of membership that we offer the first year free; please try us. The association publishes a newsletter, appropriately named Notice To Mariners, which is the official organ of the association providing cohesion to the membership and the link between the Executive Committee and the membership. Through the newsletter and other publications members can learn more about the finer points of maintaining, tuning, cruising, and racing a mariner from highly experienced Mariner sailors.

On behalf of all of the members of The US Mariner Class Association, I hope that you enjoy your visit to our web site and that you will soon also enjoy the many benefits of Membership.
