Become a member

All new members of the club begin with "Crew"  status.  After three sails with club members, new members are eligible to apply to take a check-out sail after which they will be designated as "Skippers" and will be able to book the boat.  A newly checked out club member (skipper) can take out other club members, current sailing students who want to check out the club or other sailors with at least CYA basic crew standard (or equivalent standard from another association).  If a club member wants to take out guests, they can do so if they have skippered the club boat successfully and with no damage for three times after having been checked out.

Sail Training
You would like to join the West Coast Sailing Club but don't have minimum required certification: We suggest that you contact one of the local sailing schools and ask them about their certification program.  One of local sailing schools we would like to recommend is Simply Sailing.
