Melges 15 Winter Series – January 2026 | Big Starts, Easy Logistics & Epic Downwind Sailing

This short video captures the vibe and action from the January 2026 Melges 15 Winter Series, sailed out of the incredible Melges Watersports Center.

From the moment you arrive, the appeal is obvious: easy shore-side logistics, rig-and-launch simplicity, and a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere that somehow still delivers seriously competitive racing. This is winter sailing done right.

On the water, it’s everything Melges expect and all sailors love:
• A huge start line with plenty of room to race hard
• Consistent, high-quality sailing conditions
• Tight one-design racing upwind
• And exhilarating downwind sailing that rewards speed, coordination, and confidence

Whether you’re racing, coaching, spectating, or bringing the family along for the weekend, the Melges 15 Winter Series offers a rare mix of high-performance sailing and an approachable, welcoming scene.

If you’re looking for great winter racing, a strong sailing community, and a venue that makes everything—from launching to packing up—easy, this is it.
