Matt, you are correct about the crappy wind in the summer, that's why the Lake Eustis club shuts down all summer, but in the winter there's pretty good wind most of the time, and you don't have to wash salt off your stuff when done. It would be quite a big project to start a club from scratch at Kelly Park but I would go there to race if there was one. I would not leave my boat as I like to have it at home on my beach so I can sail when I have time and wind.
The first thing you would have to do to build a new club at Kelly Park though is put up a big fence with barbed wire to keep the theives out. A club house is not so important to me, they have public bathrooms there and there is a gas station with beer, soda and chips across the street. So maybe for just the price of some fencing it could be started, if you want mast up storage. And then later, get some mebership, and build a club house. Remember it was only a few years ago when the Eustis club was only a shack and two porta-potties.
