Jericho Sailing Centre

It's Tuesday night. There were 40 boats on the water last Tuesday. Will we see you on the race course tonight?

Hi folks,

Parks Canada is hosting a FREE Wildlife Safety 101 workshop at the Jericho Sailing Centre on Wednesday August 26th. If you spend any time in the mountains or the woods, this is a worthwhile course to take.

🐻 Coexistence with wildlife is a shared responsibility – we all have a role to play! 🐺

Join Parks Canada and WildSafeBC for a FREE Wildlife Safety 101 workshop and learn how to reduce risks in wildlife country, including how to safely use bear spray.

We were lucky to have seven Martin 16s from Adaptive Sailing Association of British Columbia - ASABC on our race course for Sunday racing today.

Winds were initially light with a strong flood tide creating a challenge at first. But the wind built steadily and the racing was really close. After five races, the top two boats ended up separated by only one point with third place only three points behind second place. Gerry Burns won the day with bullets in the last three races, with Andrew Davis right behind. Some of those finishes were separated by only a few seconds. Tight racing is always so entertaining to watch.

Have you been curious about what it’s like to sail or paddle out of the Jericho Sailing Centre with one of our clubs? UBC Sailing club is hosting a try sailing event this Sunday.

Sunset paddles are the best.
