The Women’s Sailing Collective was founded in 2026 by a group of female sailors who recognized the need for a more connected, accessible hub for women’s sailing resources along the Gulf Coast. As the name suggests, the Collective brings women together to share knowledge, opportunities, and community—expanding access to sailing through education, mentorship, and collaboration.
We are pooling our resources to provide women with the opportunities they seek in the most direct way possible.
We are building a welcoming community where female sailors can share knowledge and opportunity in an organic environment.
We aim to get more women in positions of responsibility on the water: owning boats, taking the helm, and organizing races & events.
The Women’s Sailing Collective meets once a month in the Pensacola area, and organizes events throughout the month. Check out our calendar too see what we've got on.
