Welcome
to the US Naval Academy
The Naval Academy Intercollegiate Sailing Team is consistently one of the top programs in the country and has a long history of turning out collegiate All-Americans, College Sailors of the Year, Olympians, and America’s Cup sailors. The Academy’s Sailing program has incredible resources which shows the commitment to build champions and instill a spirit of excellence.
An experienced and dedicated coaching staff is a mainstay to the intercollegiate sailing program at the Academy. Navy hosts the largest regattas in college sailing and can send team members to as many as five regattas each weekend.
The U.S. Naval Academy
intercollegiate sailing team competes
in the Mid-Atlantic Intercollegiate
Sailing Association (MAISA) and will
sail in over 60 collegiate events each year. MAISA is arguably
the most competitive district in the country, and includes such
schools as Old Dominion University, Georgetown University, the
U.S. Merchant Marine Academy, and the Annapolis
is situated far enough south to allow the team to sail sail late
into the fall and start early each spring giving
The intercollegiate sailing program's fleet of racing dinghies consists of 42 racing Lasers, 50 training Lasers, 22 420s, 22 Flying Juniors, three interclub dinghies and four Tech Dinghies. This gives the team the latitude to focus during practice in a specific boat for an upcoming event. With such a large fleet, Navy is able to play host to a multitude of events every year, including two of the largest college sailing regattas in ICSA, the Navy Fall Intersectional and the Truxtun Umstead Regatta in the spring. Both regattas feature four divisions of 20 teams with all divisions racing at the same time which allows for some very exciting sailing and spectating.
