More time on
the water
starts here

The community hub connecting boat owners, sailors, trusted local Boat Pros, and the organizations that keep Pacific Northwest sailing thriving.

What is Sail More Now

Your home for
PNW sailing

An online information hub and community platform built for the Pacific Northwest sailing world. Find a trusted pro, connect with crew, discover events, and stay plugged into life on the water — all in one place.

Find Trusted Boat Pros

Browse a vetted directory of local marine service providers — riggers, mechanics, detailers, surveyors, and more. Every pro is verified, and a two-way review system keeps everyone accountable, so you know who to trust before you hire.

Crew & Owners

Boat owners find experienced crew, and sailors find their next adventure, through simple matching tools. Identity verification means you know exactly who you’re connecting with, before you ever reach out.

Stay Connected

An educational feed and the local sailing pulse, all in one spot — from club race nights to weekend cruising to volunteer opportunities that welcome you in. Stay in the know, and get involved.
