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 or Sundays (starting at 9:00 am) 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 2025
Where: Capital Cove Marina, Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling (JBAB), 90 Giovannoli Way, Washington, D.C. 20032
Cost: $60 covers the cost of the 2025 sailing season
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!

Location:
Herrington Harbor North has available slips for the evening of 25 May 2025. Please contact Megan Dierks at 410-867-4343 or make a slip reservation via DOCKWA.
This is a great multi-day experience, where you get to experience the liveaboard style, plus you get to raft-up with other boats. The sail is a great time to practice any skills you may need for a certification, or just to make sure you keep them sharp. If all you want is relax, there will be multiple fore-decks where you can do so.
Monday we return to our home ports.
We look forward to seeing you. Please pass the information about the Raft Up to anyone who wants to attend and let the skipper know if you have any questions.
Registration price only covers charter costs. Additional costs such as food, pump-out, fuel, and slip fees will be shared by the crew.
The charter boat is a catamaran with three 2-person cabins and three singles in salon (sleeping nine). You can check it out here.
The fee will not be refunded if cancellation occurs within 30 days of the start date of the sail, unless the participant finds a replacement. The club will assist with this, but will not be responsible for finding a replacement.

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 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.
