Who We Are
The Oregon Corinthian Sailing Association (OCSA), established in 1958 and later incorporated in 1975, is an independent non-profit organization whose purpose is to encourage and promote sailing events, with an emphasis on racing. OCSA’s all-volunteer Board comprises representatives from yacht clubs of northwest Oregon and southwest Washington, who together plan the annual Race Calendar, and publish the OCSA Racebook and Course Charts. OCSA also develops race management skills by providing instruction for race conduct and management, and works toward better community awareness of sailing, water safety and the appreciation of sailing as a sport.
OCSA members are exposed to a variety of activities to suit their sailing interests, and receive the OCSA Racebook, OCSA Course Charts, special notices and discounts, and event invitations. For more information, please contact a Board Officer.
