Hello,

want to start a group of sailors. In the name off the sailors group buy or rent land (onshore an iland).

Then building of a clubhouse for the sailors. Building of bridges for the yachts (sailboats).

All this with the goal insight to arrange global sail races (regattas!) = make big events with dance at nights!

Not sure what the question is. But try the above link.

This can be done.  This HAS been done, actually.

You will want to look for land that has access to a large number of sailable ocean regions.  Note that most of the blue you see on the Map is NOT accessible...it's simply "placeholder" space so regions can be geographically situated on the grid in relation to one another.  The oceans that are actually "live" regions have region names on the Map, and have a ripply water texture instead of solid blue.

Good sailing area include:

The Blake Sea (Mainland)

Some of the oceans between continents (Mainland)

The FairChang islands (estate)

The "fruit" islands (estate)

You want to be next door to sailable water, because it would be VERY expensive to have to set up and pay for a bunch of your own "ocean" regions.

Before you get too far into your project, join a couple of existing SL yacht clubs and see what they have done, and how they operate.  Two that I like are Tradewinds Yacht Club and Starboards Yacht Club.
