Why SailHQ?

We know club sailing

The roadmap comes from people who sail and have served on club committees.

Small team, real influence

No layers between you and the product. Everyone has a real say in what gets built and how.

Modern stack

Laravel 12, React 19, Tailwind CSS and Inertia. We choose tools that are easy to test and maintain.

Flexible working

Remote-friendly with flexible hours. We're a small team and we trust people to manage their own time.

How we work

Ship good work

Clean code, sensible testing and thoughtful design. No shortcuts and no over-engineering.

Talk to clubs

Feedback comes from the dinghy park and the race office, not a backlog spreadsheet. Decisions are grounded in real club operations.

Be honest

With clubs, with each other, about what's working and what isn't.

Areas we're likely to grow into

Not open roles. Just the kind of skills we'll need as the platform grows. If any of these match you, get in touch.

Engineering

Laravel, React, full-stack

Product design

UX, user research

Customer success

Onboarding, support

Marketing

Content, partnerships

Sailing operations

Race management knowledge

Community

Checked country guidance

Separate national rules from state duties.

US Sailing prescriptions cover racing. SafeSport, tax and privacy decisions need their own owners and evidence.

Record the US Sailing relationship.

US Sailing is the national governing body for the sport and the US member authority of World Sailing. Clubs and other organisations can join its membership network.

What the club record should hold.

Keep the organisation membership contact, renewal status and board owner with the club record.

Open the official source

Track US Sailing certifications.

US Sailing courses include Basic Keelboat, Basic Cruising and Performance Sailing. Clubs should store the actual certification name and expiry details.

What the club record should hold.

Record the certification title, issuing school, completion date and any renewal needed for the assigned role.

Open the official source

Follow SafeSport reporting rules.

Adults with regular contact or authority over minor athletes must take SafeSport training. Suspected child abuse must also be reported to law enforcement.

What the club record should hold.

Track the covered role, training date and reporting contact without storing confidential case detail in general notes.
