Do you know of any YC's that do a good job of organizing just for fun sailing for the dinghy's and cats?

The sailing that involves racing gets organized by the racers. Often they recruit the non racers in the club to help out. The community is formed and sustains itself for years.

Junior sailing is an activity that people get involved in at a club that also builds a community but may leave their boat high and dry but it does sustain activity

The sailing that involves just sailing never seems to get organized by anyone and so the boats tend to sit and the club really becomes a marina.
