The Willamette Sailing Club is located on the banks of the Willamette River, approximately 5 minutes south of downtown Portland. It is the only small boat sailing club in Portland, and is dedicated to dinghy (non-keelboats under 20 feet) sailing and racing.
The club hosts Learn-to-Sail classes taught by US Sailing certified instructors during the spring, summer and fall, with over 500+ students coming through our program annually! We offer classes for every age and level of experience. Whatever your sailing interest is, WSC is a welcoming club that provides a great opportunity to get out on the river and enjoy some family fun in a safe, comfortable, and scenic environment.
Empowering all people to get out on the water and explore!
The Willamette Sailing Club (WSC) is committed to creating a safe, positive, and inclusive environment for all people regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, religious affiliation, national origin, age, identity, education, disability, or other protected status. WSC is welcoming and proud of its diverse membership and guests.
We’re committed to modeling diversity and inclusion for the sailing community and to maintaining an inclusive environment with equitable treatment for all.
