Sailing is special because it lasts a lifetime, connects the generations, and is available to everyone.

Junior sailing is vibrant, over 400 high schools now have varsity sailing programs, 214 colleges field active sailing teams, our US SAILING membership is growing, community sailing centers are being formed all across America, and our sailors have excelled internationally. Over the past year American sailors have won world championships in many classes including: Sunfish, 505, Moth, Farr 40, Team Race, Star, Lightning, 2.4 meter, Melges 24, the DN and the America’s Cup. And second place in the Finn and J-24.

  • US Sailing Judge Certification Requirements
    US Sailing JUDGES PROGRAM This document summarizes the responsibilities and functions of the Judges’ Committee (JC) and Regional Administrative Judges (RAJ) and details the qualifications for certification as a US Sailing judge. 1. Judge Program History When the US Sailing Judges Program began in 1977, a set of criteria was established for certification as a US Sailing Judge, including racing and race management experience, protest committee experience and a high standard of personal integrity. Application was by resume and supported by personal references. RAJs handled applications for those in their geographic area. In 1995, the US Sailing Board of Directors asked the JC to improve the quality of the Judges Program, to review the procedures used in appointing and reappointing judges and to consider training and testing. In 1998 a new process that included attending a workshop and passing a written open-book test was introduced. The seminar and test must be taken every four years. In recent years, the JC has developed a program of continuing education credits that may be substituted for seminar attendance. Judges are expected to uphold the highest standards of personal conduct and integrity, and to be excellent role models and representatives of US Sailing. Those seeking certification as a US Sailing judge must meet the standards found in this document, in the US Sailing Judges’ Manual and in the Judges Program section of the US Sailing website (judges.ussailing.org). When a protest committee is on duty afloat or ashore and the chair is a US Sailing Judge, members may display the US Sailing judges flag.

  • USS Board Members From: Bruce Burton, President Subject: July 2018 President’S Report
    Date: July 20, 2018 To: USS Board members From: Bruce Burton, President Subject: July 2018 President’s Report Dear USS Board members, This is an uncharacteristically busy time for your president. As reported last month, the staff and organization are in full swing as our summer months are at peak season. During this period the Board activity slows down as we allow the staff time to complete their projects and attend regattas. We go sailing, they keep to the grindstone. In my case, I am in the same boat as the staff! This is what has kept me on the go since our last meeting: Over the Transom US Sailing Foundation For the past two months I spoke of our need for nominations for directors and trustees for the Foundation. This is my second round of reminders to you to please contact Georgia McDonald, Jack Gierhart or me if you have a nomination for director or trustee. Thank you! World Cup‐Miami As reported by Jack Gierhart and me, separately, we will exceed the budgeted loss approved by the US Sailing Board unless World Sailing provides requirement relief specified in the contract. As a result, the Olympic Sailing Committee (OSC) recommended/supported Jack’s firm response to World Sailing when they told us they would not provide requirement relief. Jack wrote a letter and spoke to the World Sailing CEO, I wrote the WS president and many of us spoke to WS board members. The net effect of these appeals has been that it now appears that we will receive the requirement relief we requested.

  • November CEO Summary - Jack Gierhart
    November CEO Summary - Jack Gierhart Since our meeting in San Francisco we have been focused on 2019 planning and filling the gaps to finish the year as strong as possible. For the staff and me, the board meeting and 2019 plan discussion was very productive, and we valued the questions and feedback. This approach of sharing preliminary plans for input prior to really drilling down is quite effective. We also felt the stakeholder summit was successful and provided an opportunity for our constituents to share their thoughts and learn more about what US Sailing is up to and how we can help. Feedback has been positive, and we look forward to more events like this. Planning We have completed the first round of the budget and will be compiling a second round by the end of next week. We have some gaps to fill and elements to be further developed, but I am confident we will provide a final plan that is achievable and sets the appropriate level of expectation. One significant element that we are not including in the core budget but as a standalone investment once the funds are secured, is the new database. As we shared, the first year is a $180,000-200,000 investment for development and implementation and we want to have all of that secure before proceeding. We have $50,000 and are confident that we will secure the remainder, although timing is somewhat uncertain. In the meantime, we are working with what we have to implement some of the changes the new system was going to facilitate; for example, one/two click membership purchases vs the 10+ it now takes, and we are moving a replica of the database to our email platform, so we can leverage its data mining tools for more targeted communications.
