Here are why some of the sailors chose to join the sailing team at UNH.

“I chose to do sailing because I love being on boats, and I wanted to give sailing a try.”

“I joined UNH sailing because I’ve always been a boater and have never tackled sailing. I wanted to be out on the water in my free time.”

“I joined the sailing team because I wanted to be a part of something that I was passionate about. Sailing is both a competitive sport for me as well as a way for me to recollect myself away from my classes.”

“I sailed through a Girl Scout program in Houston for about 5 years before coming to UNH, so finding a school that had a sailing team was important to me.”

“I joined the team to have fun sailing!”

“I wanted to join a community and make friends.”

“I joined UNH sailing because I wanted to learn how to sail because I had never done it before. I am so happy I did because I met a great group of friends and learned a new skill!”

“I chose to sail at UNH because I wanted to try something new and meet new people. I really enjoyed being on teams in high school, and I wanted to continue that in college.”

“I joined UNH knowing I wanted to join the sailing team, but the club team aspect made it even more appealing to me.”
