Regattas

We offer the use of Sailing Foundation boats at all regattas (with some restrictions), and coach support at the regattas listed below. Parents/sailors will be responsible for transportation, housing, meals, and entry fees (with plenty of support). Some of these are middle-school development regattas, meaning for sailors new to racing.

Spring Season 2024

Parents/sailors will be responsible for transportation, housing, meals, and entry fees (financial support is available). Online registration and any required payment must be made by 2 p.m. two weeks prior to the regatta in order to permit our coaching staff to organize boat transportation, coaching availability, and coordination with the Orcas Island team. 

Sailors who register to race in a particular regatta are expected to race on all scheduled race days, emergencies and illnesses excepted, as much of the planning is highly dependent on who will be racing. Failure to attend a regatta for which a sailor has registered may result in removal from the racing team, depending on the circumstances. In all cases, early and complete communication is the best plan. We are human, and we do understand that life can be complex. But please do your best to not make our lives unnecessarily complex.

For the official high school regattas, sailors will compete on their own high school teams. We support Spring Street International School and Friday Harbor High School teams, and we coordinate with the Orcas Island High School Team. Home-schooled students and middle-school students may participate on these teams under the rules of the Northwest Interscholastic Sailing Association. 

 

If you find a regatta you wish to sail in that’s not on our list, talk to us about providing use of a boat and coaching support.
