Bob Koll Sailing Foundation
Finding your direction through sailing
Volunteer to Help us with our CauseBob Koll Sailing Volunteers give back to the community while sharing the sport they love. If you already have sailing skills, we can take you to the next level. If you’re just a beginner hoping for a deeper understanding of boating, there is no better way to learn than to get involved. The sailing community is small and close knit. Come and join us!
Our volunteers help teach aboard Blacksilver, our flagship sailing vessel and/or a number types of vessels at the Newport Sea Base. At the Base, we help youth and other non-profit community groups learn the basics of sailing, from cruising and racing to seamanship ways and life building skills. We promote communication skills between helm and trimmers, and give advice on how to handle adverse situations without recrimination. We then encourage those that have developed sound skills to race and/or cruise on Blacksilver and other sailing and power boats. The emphasis is very much on teamwork. Many of our youth and other groups in our program along with our volunteers are now very much bitten with the racing and cruising bug and are keen to continue their sailing education. All volunteer orientations are taught aboard Blacksilver, our flagship program boat.
