| In the 1970's a group of experienced sailors spearheaded the creation of an Offshore Sailing Department which gave the opportunity for older members to participate in nautical activities, thus adding a new vein of life to the efforts of the NCTh. Soon the new department became well known all over Greece and gave the NCTh a reputation as an advocate of offshore sailing. NCTh started to organize of local meets in 1974, which lead to annual championships beginning in 1986. In 1978 the NCTh made efforts to organize an international sailing week, the "North Aegean Cup", one of the most important Greek offshore events. |

The best boats and crews of this race have also participated in events abroad with many distinctions. A high point was the 6th place of the "FIGHTIN' IRISH" in the 3/4 Ton Worlds of 1988. The same year the Hellenic Sailing Federation assigned the organization of the National Offshore Championship to the NCTh. In the following years the club undertook national championships for IMX 38, ORC Club and IMS.
In 2000, the "North Aegean Cup" is also the second leg of the "Friendship Cup" organized in cooperation with the Instanbul Offshore Sailing Club ( Istanbul - Gelibulu - Neos Marmaras ). |

NCTh is sailing dynamically in worldwide waters as well:
In 1991 in co-operation with Porto Carras Yachting Club the club organized the 1/4 Ton Worlds. The following year the "THESSALONIKI '97 - Cultural Capital of Europe" crewed by NCTh members participated in the 500 years anniversary race of the discovery of the Americas. |  |
