WOMEN ON WATER (WOW), a Pentagon Sailing Club (PSC) group, provides opportunities for women to sail in a fun, supportive, and learning environment!
From April through October, WOW meets on select Thursdays (5:30 pm until dusk) and Saturdays (starting at 9:00 am) and occasional Fridays and Sundays at the Capital Cove Marina on Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling (JBAB) in Washington, D.C., where PSC moors a fleet of Catalina Capri 22s. After each sail, WOW members gather at the marina's waterfront restaurant, The Slip Inn.
Who: All PSC women are welcome to join!
When: April through October 2026
Where: Capital Cove Marina, Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling (JBAB), 90 Giovannoli Way, Washington, D.C. 20032
Cost: $60 covers the cost of the 2026 sailing season
Note, you must be a PSC member to register for WoW. If you DO NOT have access to JBAB, after completing a PSC membership application, you may apply for DBIDS card. This takes time to process. Without a DBIDS card, you don't have access to the marina. Note: PSC can only sponsor DBIDS cards for active club members.
Happy Sailing!
Come join us for a Wednesday Night Social Sail with PSC BBQ After!!
Here's your chance to take a little time after work (or maybe even leave the office early if you can) and join some of your fellow PSC members for an evening social sail on the Potomac.
Boats depart the docks starting at 4:30; 5:30 PM at the latest. All boats must be tied back up in their slips before sunset.
Come out and join us and practice your sailing. You might pick up a tip or be able to share your tips with each other in this relaxed atmosphere. Oh, did we mention that it's only $10 to participate (& free for Skippers)? How much better can it get?!
BUT WAIT, THERE's MORE! On the last Wednesday of each month, we will hold a Social Hour after we sail with FREE Club provided refreshments!

We hope to see you out on the water!

Dear PSCers:
Monthly Membership social meetings are held the third Monday of every month (3rd Tuesday, when Monday is a holiday), except in December when the annual Holiday Party & Awards Dinner takes the place of the regular social meeting.
We normally have dinner together, hear from a guest speaker, and then conduct a business meeting. All year long, it's a good time!
We'll be at the Alexandria West Marine (601 S Patrick St) this month!
Happy Hour and networking starts at 6:00 pm and meeting starts at 7:00 pm with a short ice-breaker. We recommend that you come early to have some food (pizza!!), birthday cake for our April birthdays, and drinks, browse through West Marine's merchandise, and hang around with other sailors.
Do you or someone you know have a unique or interesting insight, skill, or experience related to some aspect of sailing you would be willing to present to our membership?
Please contact our Membership Commodore for more information.

Last BBQ of the Season!
Register here: https://www.pentagonsailing.org/event-6550124
The Hydrilla Cup is a PSC social event hosted by the Racing Squadron. Join us for a day of races, fellowship, and a cookout!
The main event will be a series of two to three races on the Potomac River in which teams of PSC members compete against each other to claim victory on one of our Capri 22's. We'll follow the racing with a cookout at the marina.
This is also a great opportunity to try out for PSC's 2027 racing team.
This event is free, but registration is required since there's limited space on the boats. If you'd like to share a dish for the cookout, please send a note to racing@pentagonsailing.org. If you'd like to attend the cookout but not sail, there's unlimited space to attend.
Note: This event is held on Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling; you must have an ID card (or a DIBDS card) that allows access to the base to participate.
0900 Welcome, Intro to Racing, prepare boats 1000 Launch boats, warm up 1100 Start time for first race 1430 Estimated finish time for last race 1500 Cookout and awards
