BRISTOL, R.I. (May 22, 2018) – As many of you may have noticed, US Sailing created a new website.
Following months of research and input from our valued members and constituents, as well as time and effort from our staff and tech team, US Sailing has launched a new website designed to better serve all types of sailors.
Regardless of how you connect with US Sailing, our new website will enhance your experience with our organization’s programs, services, and events.
