Yale tops both the coed and women’s rankings in the first national poll of the season. Georgetown and Charleston round out the top three coed teams, while Dartmouth and Brown take second and third spots in the women’s rankings.
Following a win at ICSA/Gill Coed Dinghy Nationals this Spring, Georgetown starts out the Fall 2012 season at the top of the preseason coed rankings. After winning Sperry Top-Sider/ICSA Women’s Nationals, Boston College starts off the season ranked second behind Yale, and followed closely by third-ranked Dartmouth.
**School is out for the summer, and so is college sailing. Without a detailed practice and regatta schedule, young sailors across the country have to find alternative ways to keep their skills sharp and their sunglass tans sharper.

Georgetown’s Chris Barnard shares advice that every sailor can put to use–know when to push yourself, when to cut yourself some slack, and how to stay in fighting shape.
From start to finish of her college sailing career, Georgetown’s Sydney Bolger has aimed for perfection and has come quite close to achieving it. What might come as a surprise is that she credits her Quantum Women’s College Sailor of the Year honors not only to her calm mentality, but also to the element of fun that she brought to the racecourse this year.
