Chesapeake Shorthanded Sailing Society

The Chesapeake Shorthanded Sailing Society (CHESSS) is a paper club that supports and caters to minimalist sailors who manage their boats without a traditional crew complement. CHESSS is mainly concerned with serving solo and doublehanded sailors within the Chesapeake Bay environs, and is the only such organization on the US East Coast. CHESSS encourages any solo or doublehanded sailors on the East Coast to join and is happy to assist in establishing other shorthanded sailing clubs in other areas such as New England or the southern US.
