Are you a City Sailor?

Founded in 2018, SailMaine’s City Sailors program is designed to reach underserved youth in the Greater Portland area. Access to the water is crucial for personal growth and skill development. SailMaine provides free sailing lessons and STEM-based learning to kids who need it most through community partners. Gear, food, and transportation are available at no cost for all who need it.

City Sailors is funded by grants and individuals like you. Support our efforts by donating, volunteering, or taking advantage of our paid programs!

Community Partners

These partners are the core of the City Sailors program. They help us find kids most in need of access to the water and work with us to develop individualized activities and lessons.
