Dont know about any sailors of any kind out there, but I can tell you that the striped bass are huge in Meade and I would LOVE to catch one on a flyrod. They will go after popcorn or chips if you throw em in the water - of course thats in a no fishing area!!! The Yacht club has really good food and there is a dive shop in the town of Lake Meade

There was a fleet in Vegas and a sailing shop, but that was years ago. Check with IHCA NAHCA and Hobie for dealers and fleets in the area. I sailed on Mead once (borrowed boat from dealer) gorgeous and fun. My only problem was when I can to shore I jumped off as the water looked shallow, it was so clear it was over my head, looked like a fool, but that is nothing new. It would be a shame if there was no Hobie sailing on Mead. HTH, Ricardo.

There is a southern Utah Hobie fleet that I get some emails from and I know that there a was a big Hobie sailing event at Mead early in the year. I would assume if they have an official Hobie event there that there has to be fleet there as well.

Hobie Fleet 51 is out of Las Vegas. They are a great bunch of people. Very friendly. They put on the Havemega in Havasu this last spring and sail on the lakes of the south west and down to Mexico once or twice a year.
