Is your high schooler interested in sailing team? Consider Whatcom Sailing.
Eligibility
Beginner and intermediate Middle School Students in Whatcom County grades 6-8.
Cost
Team fee is $400 for the Spring Season. We do not want cost to be a barrier from participation, our scholarship program can be found here.
Season / Practices
We practice 2 times a week Monday/Wednesday 4:00 – 7:00, rain or shine! Our 2023 Spring Season is April 10th – June 7th. Practices are held at the Community Boating Center on Bellingham Bay and we host practice in our RS Quests and our new fleet of RS Teras.
Required Gear
All sailors are required to wear a lifejacket with a whistle, which the CBC will provide. There will also be days that we will require a wetsuit (which we can provide) or you won’t be able to sail. We strongly encourage proper gear such as gloves, booties, and no cotton (we have these available as well!). On the days we are not able to sail we will do team workouts, including cardio exercises, team members must always be prepared for running.
