Sail Nova Scotia

What terrific news! Congratulations to those from SailGP and the Canada SailGP Team on welcoming Dr. Greg Bailey to the ownership group! Over the summer months Sail Nova Scotia, with the support of our member clubs and sailing schools, have held several meetings with Government partners and stakeholders about a SailGP return to Halifax in 2026. Support has been overwhelming and interest is very high to have SailGP return. We are so excited to be in the process of preparing our bid for SailGP Season 6!

Congratulations Chris. Well deserved!

What a year it has been for sailors and boaters in Nova Scotia. Sail GP, Olympic Games, youth programs at capacity and much more great success stories. We want to hear who you think is deserving of a Sail NS award! Nominations are open until September 30! Information and the nomination form can be found here. https://lnkd.in/gHJGRQ7f

SailGP’s decision to not return to Canada in Season 5 is a hard one for all of us to grapple with. Our team is working hard to ensure that we will be on the start line when Season 5 gets underway and that we will have another standout home event in 2026 🇨🇦

The ROCKWOOL Canada Sail Grand Prix was the culmination of over two years of work for a large team and it resulted in a huge success for our city, province and country. Although SailGP won’t be back in 2025, Sail Nova Scotia is looking ahead to 2026, with the confidence that we can make the event even bigger and better. #SailGP #CanadaSGP

Last night Sail Nova Scotia celebrated the success of the ROCKWOOL CANADA SAIL GP / Halifax and all those wonderful folks who lent us their talent so Halifax could experience the most exciting racing on water. These amazing volunteer leads and stakeholders were central to Sail Nova Scotia hosting the first Canadian SailGP event. Thank you again to these amazing individuals! And a big thank you to Jennifer Hall and the Canada SailGP Team for all the support and always delivering fantastic racing! And thank you to all our sailors, partners, volunteers, member clubs, and Halifax! You all showed up and made the experience one for the history books! #SailGP #CanadaSGP
