Dauntless Sailing School

Ready just in time for this weekend's ECSC Mayor's Cup Regatta, our new-to-us J/24 "UNDAUNTED" is making its inaugural regatta debut sporting new GOT-Themed boat graphics and new matching team jerseys.

As part of our Sailing Performance/Regatta Participation course (the next step up from our very popular flagship Adult Beginner Sailing Course) "Team Undaunted" students have the opportunity to improve upon their basic sailing skills in the fun environment of actual regatta participation.

It's not about being a "racer" or being competitive, for Dauntless Sailing School it's about having fun and incrementally improving your sailing skills in an environment where you can actually measure and see your sailing skill improvements through your weekly race results.

We’re launching the new Dauntless Sailing School Scholarship Fund— and we need your help before April 18.

For 17 years, I’ve believed sailing should be accessible to people from all walks of life, not just those with abundant financial means. This scholarship fund will help qualified applicants with financial need access meaningful sailing education and experiences.

One current qualified applicant is Elijah, a neurodivergent young adult I’ve had the privilege of watching grow through sailing and through his experience with Dauntless Sailing School. He completed our Adult Beginner Sailing Class, continued into our Regatta/Performance Sailing Course, and helped “Team Undaunted” finish 1st Place in the ECSC Summer Regatta Series. More importantly, I’ve seen him become more confident, more engaged, and more willing to step forward and participate fully with the team.

His mother is already signed up for our upcoming Exumas Catamaran Sailing Excursion, departing this month, and we would love to help support current and future qualified applicants, including Elijah, through this fund.

My wife and I will match the first $1,000 in qualifying donations, dollar for dollar, for contributions of $100 or more.

$2,295 fully funds one Exumas trip-fee scholarship.
