Join today!

All are welcome to join our association—you don’t need to own a boat or be a sailor to join our community. Membership entitles you to attend all association events, and to participate in committees. But most importantly, you will have the chance to meet like-minded individuals who support the tradition of Nova Scotia Schooners and their importance to the heritage and culture of our province… and to have fun doing it!

There are two membership types, Full and Senior members. 

Full Members are those persons wishing to help preserve and maintain an interest in schooner-rigged vessels in Nova Scotia. Full members are welcome to attend all meetings and events, sit on committees, hold office, and may vote on all Association business except racing matters and constitutional changes. 

Senior Members are those Full Members who are owners of schooner-rigged vessels qualified to race with the Association, who reside in or maintain their vessels in Nova Scotia. If you are a schooner owner and are interested in becoming a full member, please email our Commodore.
