National Sailing Hall of Fame Class of 2025

The Class of 2025 Induction festivities returned home to sailing’s home port of Newport, RI September 24 and 25. A lively welcome reception was held at The Sailing Museum & National Sailing Hall of Fame on Wednesday evening, with more than 200 loved ones, family members and fans in attendance to kick things off. On Thursday, nearly 300 guests gathered at the New York Yacht Club Harbor Court to celebrate the 15th Anniversary Induction for both the daytime ceremony and more formal evening dinner. The Class of 2025 was honored with moving stories, heartfelt tributes, and a powerful sense of community that spanned generations of sailors. It was an unforgettable celebration of excellence and passion in the sport — and for those not there, a moment missed.
