Thank You for Helping MSC Weather The COVID-19 Closure

We want to extend a big THANK YOU to all of our members and students who have reached out to Modern Sailing since the COVID-19 "shelter in place" mandate took effect on Tuesday, March 17. We've received many emails offering kind words of encouragement and support, which we greatly appreciate. We've also received questions from our members and students about how they can help MSC hold ground against the ebb of crucial revenue. We recognize that this is a difficult time in so many ways for many individuals and businesses alike, including MSC, so these inquiries are also deeply appreciated. We are buoyed by the expressions of caring flowing in from our devoted sailing community.

Wondering how to you can help MSC weather the COVID-19 closure?

Pre-Purchase ASA Courses, Clinics, Club Sails and Race Packs Online - with a Thank You Discount!

Are you looking forward to getting back on the water and planning ahead to acheive your sailing goals? To help you make it happen, we've made it possible for you to purchase an ASA Course, Clinic, Club Sail, or Race Pack online with Thank You Discounts in anticipation of our full re-opening. (As of May 4, we have phased in only limited bareboat chartering for members. We will resume group activities as soon as we can safely and responsibly do so.)

To receive our heartfelt THANK YOU for your support, please be sure to apply these promotion codes at checkout:

• THANKYOU25 for $25 off on any 1-Day Sailing Clinic, Introductory Sail, Club Sail, or Race Pack. (Offer expires June 30.)
• THANKYOU50 for $50 off the regular price of any multi-day ASA Course. (Offer expired May 31.)

Your pre-purchase will:

• Directly fund payroll for our staff to continue responding to your inquiries, attend to necessary administrative tasks and projects from home, and prepare for re-opening.
• Keep our fleet ship-shape. Even while the fleet lies idle waiting for the COVID-19 tides to turn, marina rent and ongoing maintenance remain essential. Our goal is for all boats to be ready for you to take out on the Bay and enjoy sailing once the "all clear" is signaled.
