Sailing
...is not a science to be practiced with precision. It is an art, a craft. By its very nature, sailing is enigmatic and requires abstract thought. It takes both mental and physical effort necessitating total involvement, and this involvement is what being a sailor is all about.
Welcome Aboard! Mark Twain Lake Sailing Association offers a hearty welcome to all who come to Mark Twain Lake in search of sailing adventure. Our sailors travel from Iowa, Florida, Oklahoma, Illinois, Indiana, and Missouri to sail upon the 18,000 acres of water at The Clarence Cannon Dam and Mark Twain Lake. MTLSA membership includes members and their families and more than 60 various classes of sailboats, both docked and trailored. Getting Underway MTLSA members are encouraged to participate in the Association’s organized events. Year ‘round, we boast of more than 15 activities sure to keep you on an even keel with your sailing education and entertainment.
