Does anyone have any advice about what to do when you're implicitly excluded from activities at work?

Question

Eg. a couple guys I know (I work in finance) are going on a sailing day with clients but I don't know how to and feel like I can't just tag along even though it's a really great opp to bond

I agree! Organize your own event

Have you directly expressed your desire to be included? Time to speak up, even if it's a simple, 'hey, can I get a ride along with one of you' to let them know you'd like to be included, even if it's not something you're an expert at yourself.  It will be a great opportunity to bond and get to know clients and colleagues outside of work.

This is one of those frustrating situations where if there's no upside in complaining, your a kill-joy if you do and if you feel helpless but there's not realistically a lot you can do

I think you should try to organize something else rather than try to force it to work...
