Cascadia Sailing

9 WEEKS TO GO
SO much work is going into participating in the Women's International Championship. If you are a sponsor, friend, or family member... these next couple of months are going to be wild. Here's a quick rundown:

World Sailing classifications applications for all crew: DONE our part. Waiting.

Flights: working on it! ✈️

Training weekends: Spending a whole lot of time on the ferry!

Logistics: crossing off tasks like it's our ACTUAL job

Teamwork: 💪stronger every week

Behind every race is months of preparation that most people never see.

This isn't a summer off.
It's a summer of commitment. We'll take you on the journey:

Workouts.
Practices.
Strategy sessions.
The women of Cascadia Sailing are all in.

9 weeks. LFG. 💚

A huge thank you to everyone who donated to our Cascadia Sailing silent auction at Thrash Regatta! ⛵️

Because of the generosity of our sailing community and local businesses, the auction table was full, the bidding was lively, and together we raised $5,000 for Cascadia Sailing as we prepare for the 2026 New York Yacht Club International Women’s Championship in Newport. 🌊

We are so grateful to everyone who donated, bid, shared, and helped make this fundraiser such a success. 💙

We haven’t done Friday Faces in a while, so here’s a pretty great one for you!

Cascadia Sailing crew member Lindsay Bergan just won the 2026 Tasar World Championship with her husband Dalton in Okinawa, Japan. 🌎🏆⛵️

Lindsay and Dalton topped an incredible 113-boat Worlds fleet, finishing the regatta with three first-place finishes, including the final race!

Huge congratulations to Lindsay and Dalton! We are unbelievably proud and excited.
