Connection: Women Boater Facebook Pages
There are several very active women-oriented boating Facebook pages locally. Many of these are "closed" pages, restricted to women only. You'll need to search for them by name and ask permission to join. Here's a sample of the ones most popular with local women boaters
Women Who Sail (and Power Cruise) Pacific NW
The largest, and most active women boater FB page in our area. Open to both women sail and power boaters.
Shilshole Women's Sailors Group
Hosted by CYC Seattle at Shilshole, but open to all local women sailors. Monthly meetings (live at the CYC clubhouse or via Zoom)
Team Sail Like a Girl
This all-woman team won the challenging Race to Alaska. The first all woman crew to do so (and on the first monohull to win). But that's just the start of what this amazing group of women have done and ARE doing!
SheSails Seattle
SheSails Seattle is owned and operated by Lisa Cole. She teaching beginning sailing lessons to women, men, and families on her Catalina 25 sailboat on Seattle's Lake Union. She's passionate about teaching sailing, and Lake Union is a great place to visit!

Connection: "Knot-a-Boat"
Free booth at the Seattle Boat Show, staffed by women volunteers
Women: coming to the Seattle Boat Show? Know how to tie a few basic boating knots? Please volunteer at our Northwest Women in Boating "Knot-a-Boat" booth, where we teach boaters a few basic knots. I'll give you tickets to get into the show for free! It's lots of fun, and a way to promote women in boating.
