Sail - Sea Trek II, Shilshole Bay Marina

Sail in the Sailfest race in Shilshole Bay

  • Easy

Meet at the boat, Shilshole, slip Q-5 at 6:15PM, ready to leave.

Looking for 3 to 5 Mountaineers sailing badge holders to supplement the rest of my regular crew as we race in the Sailfest race event. This is a more casual race with about 30 boats. We may be flying the spinnaker, and are usually back around 8:30pm, depending on the wind.


Note:  Preference will be given to recent students from the classes of 2014 or 2015.

Food will be at the event after the race at the Shilshole Marina Admin building if you wish to attend. They will be showing an outdoor movie as well.

The Sailing Essentials

Don’t leave the dock without these items! They make sailing safer for you and your crewmates. As a carrier, use a soft duffel bag for easy stowing without metal buckles that can scratch woodwork.

  • Non-skid deck shoes (or sea boots) with non-marking soles.
  • Heavy-duty gloves (preferably leather) for line handling (fingertips cut off is OK).
  • Warm clothing head to foot (Note: The ambient temperature on the water is usually lower than on land).
  • Foul-weather gear
  • Sunglasses
  • Sunscreen
  • Knife on lanyard
  • Whistle on a lanyard
  • Food and drink
  • Headlamp or flashlight
