Who We Are
Regatta Point Community Sailing began with a simple belief: everyone should have access to the water.
Our Story
Making Waves Since 1960
Regatta Point Community Sailing began with a simple belief: everyone should have access to the water. For over 60 years, our nonprofit organization has been a cornerstone of the Worcester and Hopkinton communities, providing affordable sailing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and rowing programs to thousands of Central Massachusetts residents.
From humble beginnings with a small fleet of donated sailboats, we've grown into a vibrant community organization serving over 5,000 people annually through our summer camps, lessons, rentals, and community programs.
