Overview

Mission

To provide a community dedicated to learning and teaching the art of sailing to adults in minneapolis and st. Paul.

What it reported doing in 2024

220 members had access to the club's fleet of 19 sailboats for training and recreational use. Over 45 on-the-water sailing instruction sessions were held during the sailing season. In addition, there was a multi-day classroom instruction program for the sailboat racing program. 60 new members from the general public were admitted to the club via a random selection process due to high demand for the limited slots available. The club accepts adult members with all levels of sailing experience.

Operating model

Revenue model
Membership-supported. 73% of the money available for current operations came from membership dues.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 98% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
