Spring Sailing 2025

Good morning sailors and families,

We are excited to announce the schedule for the Spring 2025 sailing season.

On Thursday, Feb 20th, we will have our High School Sailing Pre-Season meeting, 6pm @ The Bellingham Yacht Club downstairs.  This meeting is for both parents and students who plan to be on the team or are interested in learning more about it. The team is open to all high schoolers in Whatcom County and 8th graders with racing experience. We have many important topics to cover at the meeting including practice and regatta schedules and expectations.

It will also be a good meeting to attend for new sailors interested in joining the team, so please encourage anyone interested to be there.  

Spring 2025 Practice and Regatta schedule are posted on the website: https://www.whatcomsailing.com/schedule

First practice is Thursday, February 27th @ 3:45 at the Bellingham Yacht Club. 

REGISTRATION & TEAM FEES

Team fees are $350 fee + $35 pinnie deposit = $385 for the spring season. As always, we don't want these fees to stop anyone from participating so please let us know if you need financial assistance. Also, if you aren't sure if you should pay the pinnie deposit, let us know. We have a list of which sailors kept their pinnies at the end of fall.

Registration is now available on the website.  CLICK HERE TO REGISTER

Please note: Our spring mailing list will be based off of registration, so please be sure to register using email addresses you can access easily and check frequently.

ALSO, all high schoolers (not 8th grade) must do the required sports clearance with your school on Final Forms.  This is an online process on your school's website: https://bellingham-wa.finalforms.com/

A sports physical is required, so get that scheduled ASAP if you do not have a current physical on file.  

Registration and school clearance is required before you can practice. For a list of everything that is required see the Join Page of our website.  Attached is the sailor packet with more information.

We will go over all this in more detail at the meeting, but feel free to contact us if you have questions!

Hope to see you soon.

Best,

Anna and Cooper
