Crew

Want to crew for cruising or racing? Sign up on our Crew Bank form.

The Crew Table is effective too. Drop by the club on a keelboat race night around 5:00 – 5:30 p.m. Sit under the blue “tent” by the gate to the docks and greet people as they pass, ask: “Need a crew?” On Wednesday nights, walk the dinghy Park and ask people “Anyone need a crew?” The more nautical you look, and the more you engage people, the more sailing you will get. Don’t be shy!

Done crewing or found your forever boat? Please complete the Crew Bank form and select “Remove me from the crew bank”.

Non-members are welcome to register in the Crew Bank, though if you are not already an NSC member, it is our hope and expectation that you will become a crewing member if you use the club regularly.

For any other questions or issues, please send an e-mail to Ted Ceelen, the Crew Bank Coordinator

Come Join the J24 Fleet! The J24 fleet is growing again here in Ottawa, and you could be a part of it! We are seeking crew for both club and regatta racing. If you have the time and energy, a positive attitude, and team spirit, this could be a great opportunity to have a tun of fun! The Canadian Championship is planned for June 21-22 here at NSC. Annual J24 events in upstate New York are just a few hours away. The newly minted Canadian J24 Class Association Council are working on more events as a build up to the J24 World Championship in Rochester, New York in 2027. Training in all positions will be provided. (12 Feb. 2025)

Crew Looking For A Boat

Hi, I was an avid sailor back in my teens as well as an instructor as part of the CanSail program for 4 years teaching kids CANSail 1-4 down in Picton ON and now I am in Ottawa full time. I've been away from the sport for almost 7 years but I am well experienced, just a bit rusty. Would love to be a crew member for skippers looking! (11 Mar. 2025)
