What we're about
This is a group designed to help anyone find a sailboat to crew on simply, and for skippers to find crew for races in the Tacoma, WA area. It is simple! RSVP for the event, and I will have the skipper of a boat call you with details.
We race with the Corinthian Yacht Club of Tacoma, and races are every Wednesday evening starting early April for 20 weeks straight. There are also many races on weekend. I will post the race dates, and if you want to get on a boat, I will find you one! Boats typically leave the dock between 5:30-6:45, depending on where it is moored. Boat locations range from Thea Foss waterway, Tyee Marina (near Browns Point), Point Defiance, and other locations. Come out for a race, make some new friends, and find a crew you can be a part of!

Come join the crew a boat on a Wednesday evening sailboat races on Tacoma's Commencement Bay! These are hosted by the Corinthian Yacht Club of Tacoma (CYCT), and occur every Wednesday From April 12 through the end of August. While some sailing experience is helpful, all are welcome. Get out on the water, meet some new people and learn about the fun sport of sailboat racing!
Once you RSVP to a race event, information will be provided to you about where you can meet sailboat owners/skippers looking for crew. Once you have connected with a skipper and gone out for a race, you can discuss with the skipper about continuing to go out on that boat for upcoming races.
RSVP ONLY if you need to be assigned to a boat. If you are already assigned to a boat, know which boat/skipper you are going out with, or are already going out on a boat this summer, don't continue to RSVP so we don't try and find you another boat. Make sure your contact info is up to date.
Visit www.cyct.com for more information about our racing program, or to find out about how to join the club as a "crew" member. CYCT Crew Membership is a great way to meet more local skippers and sailors, which can provide additional opportunities for hands on experience and mentoring. As a club member, you are welcome to attend all CYCT social events, cruises, our monthly club meetings. Membership also helps support the sport of sailboat racing in the Tacoma area.
Safety - Participating in CYCT sailboat racing is voluntary and is done at your own risk. CYCT takes the crew safety very seriously. Compliance current with Federal, State, and local safety rules and regulations is required by the club. However it is the responsibility of the boat owner/skipper to ensure everyone on their crew complies with these regulations and the crew is kept safe while they are out on the water while participating in CYCT races. If you have any safety related questions or concerns please ask your skipper before you leave the dock or as soon as the question comes up. Remember, you have the final call deciding what you feel safe doing.
