In 2022, the SheSails National Leadership Conference was a great success, overtaking the record set by the event in its inaugural year to become the most attended SheSails gathering to date, seeing over 300 participants dialing in.

This year’s 1.5-hour event is set to further the positive trajectory of female sailors, volunteers, administrators, and officials even further, with a diverse range of talented industry leaders on board to present.

The 2023 SheSails Leadership Conference will focus on professional and volunteer pathways for women in the sport of sailing and aim to inspire those interested in beginning or furthering a career in the industry to achieve their goals.
