Editorial interest 74/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A radio-sailing club at Mystic Seaport invites people to watch, join, or help shape its beginnings.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-23 issue.
For
Radio-sailing hobbyists and prospective Mystic-area sailors
Worth noticing
Race-day notices go out through WhatsApp first; the site says smaller groups may share a joiner's phone number with their members.

Field notes

The homepage describes the club as forming at Mystic Seaport and says its format is still being decided. It directs members to a WhatsApp community for race dates, weather calls, meeting locations, and short-notice changes; joining smaller WhatsApp groups shares a participant’s number with that group. Facebook and Instagram carry photos and announcements, but the site says race-day calls do not happen there. The page also lists boat donation, contact, gallery, and member sections.
