Welcome to Nova Scotia’s total boating resource centre

Through expertise and collaboration we will support the needs of our member clubs, schools and stakeholders.

Sail Nova Scotia has supported us from our first years of racing to now being on the national team. We couldn’t operate without their amazing support.
