Welcome to the Ensign Fleet 2 website
Ensign Fleet 2 is located at the Houston Yacht Club on Galveston Bay in Shoreacres, Texas. The fleet is dedicated to sailing and racing the Pearson Ensign.
The Ensign sailboat is the largest class of full keel boats in North America and was inducted into the Sailing Hall of Fame in 2002. Its popularity, rather than declining with the advent of very high performance boats, has been on a major upswing. The Ensign Class has one of the strongest national organizations and support fleets from the East Coast through the Rocky Mountains. The Ensign is 22 and 1/2 feet long, weighs about 3,000 pounds, has a draft of 3 feet and is best raced with a crew of four.
Please join us for fun, friends, and racing competition. We are able to sail and race year round with a one-design fleet at each of the major regatta’s on Galveston Bay. Interested in racing? Please contact the Fleet 2 Commodore, John Culter. He can get you information about crewing on an Ensign, or where to buy your very own Ensign! We welcome new sailors, boats, and crew members.
