Seattle Sailing Committee

Seattle Sailing Committee

Seattle Mountaineers sailing committee is dedicated to sharing our passion for sailing in the waters of the greater Seattle area and beyond.

The Mountaineers Sailing program has been offering an annual sailing course for over 30 years. Graduates of the course who maintain their Mountaineers membership are able to sign up for sails with Mountaineers Skippers for free!  Mountaineer members who already possess sailing experience and skills can apply for equivalency, which allows them to bypass the course and sign up for sails upon approval by the Sailing Committee Chair. 

The sailboats in the Mountaineer Sailing program are not owned by the Mountaineers but are privately owned by the skippers.  The boats range in length from 20 feet to 44 feet.

The Sailing Committee is always seeking new Skippers to join the program. If you are a sailboat owner and are interested in becoming a Mountaineers Skipper reach out to the Sailing Committee Chair for more information.
