New Members Welcome!

Re-launched in 2025, National’s Women on Water (WOW) is a community, within the NYC community, that provides opportunities for women to build autonomy, increase confidence, and improve on-water skill sets.

WOW at National will work towards creating a supportive network for women both on and off the water, to promote health, wellness, financial literacy, career development and leadership.

WOW hosts a variety of events, some for all members and some exclusive to women-only.

Our Mission:

We rise by lifting each other

Our Plan:

Empowerment through Education
To develop and run robust programs focused on women’s empowerment through boating seminars, career workshops, wellness events and networking.

Community Building
To organize regular community building events such as leadership forums, sailing clinics and wellness workshops.

Regional Collaboration
To partner with other local boating clubs and organizations to create a larger, regional, WOW network.

Expanded Engagement
To leverage partnerships for joint educational and social events to broaden community involvement.
