We’re re-instituting the NBYA Spring Meeting (this is a clubs/organizations planning meeting) — clubs are strongly encouraged to send at least one representative, ideally someone senior or operationally focused who can bring insights back to your team.
We have a new NBYA staff bringing real energy and momentum, and with that comes meaningful change. This meeting is your opportunity to benefit from what’s new—and help shape it—before it impacts the 2026 sailing season.
