Do you want to crew on a racing or cruising sailboat? Or, maybe you are a sailboat Captain that needs crew? We will try to match you up with someone compatible. Other than experience and being highly skilled, some of the other qualities that Skippers are looking for are availability and reliability. So, even if you are new to sailing, you may be invited to crew on a sailboat, and the Skipper is usually willing to teach their crew how to be better.
If you are interested in being a crew, please fill out the form below. You may also post your information in the “Comments” section below so people can see that you are interested and available.

Get on the “Available to Crew” list.
If you are a current SSSS Club member and interested in crewing on a sailing boat, fill out the form below. Non-members can still be crew, but you should come to one of the SSSS Club monthly General Meetings and introduce yourself (or better yet, join the Club!)
I don’t have a boat but I’m available to crew. I live in downtown Oly and can get to those marinas within 10 minutes. In terms of experience, I just took the OCS adult sailing course as a refresher. Prior to that: crewed on a sailboat from New Zealand to Japan in 2005 (2 month trip), and a tall ship doing day sails out of Traverse City MI for a college summer in 2002, and a 10-day tall ship sail around Cape Cod as a highschooler. I originally learned to sail as a teenager via windsurfing.
I hope you can make it to the meeting tonight. We introduce new members and a lot of times race skippers will recruit for their crew.
Hello SSSS members,
If you are a boat owner and want to get started racing in our club, or if you are already racing but need to add to your crew, please contact me at .
We’ll get your boat listed on our “Boat looking for crew” page that’s presently under construction.
If you don’t own a boat but think you might like to give racing a try, fill out the “Available to crew” form to add your name to that list.
And you can always contact me via email to potentially speed up the process of finding a boat to crew on.
Thanks,
Tucker Smyth
SSSS Race Chair
