Watch the U.S. Sailing Team Championships, hosted by the Foundry, from Whiskey Island or the Old Coast Guard Station.

Teams of six sailors — two on each boat — will apply to race in the event, Sept. 27-30. Between 12 and 16 teams will be accepted, made up mostly of nonprofessional sailors in their late 20s and early 30s.

At the championships, teams will race head-to-head, three boats against three boats, using the Foundry’s small 420E dinghies. The first boat to finish each race will receive 1 point, the second 2 points, etc. The lowest score at the end of the round robin tournament wins.
