Our Mission

The Mission of OffshoreDoubles.org is to create a fair and robust ecosystem to continue to the growth of this fastest expanding segment of offshore sailing. We are dedicated to helping our members (sailors) and partners (Events, Boats, Suppliers and Sponsors) succeed in their goals in a way that builds the community as a whole.

The Olympic Offshore Doubles event is an exciting development for our sport showcasing the thrill and hardship of day and night sailing offshore with 24/7 media coverage. It is a showcase event that many of our members and partners are focused on and we are dedicated to ensuring its continued development and place in the games. At the same time, we are dedicated to support our stakeholders involved in local and regional events and helping to them create growing and learning communities through sharing the knowledge gained around the world by all.
