2021 Autumn Gales Registration Update
Hello Autumn Galers!
Registration for the event is now in full swing. Similar to last year, given the uncertainty of the Covid climate, we will be limiting the number of participants so signing up early will be key to securing your spot.
While international travel Covid restrictions to the US will be relaxing, they will not be relaxing in time to bring in our coaches and friends from across the pond. Still, we have a stellar line up of regional top talent, including John Carmody, and are continuing to reach out to other BC coaches as sign up grows.
This year, the Autumn Gales will be run out of the New England Sailing and Science Center (NESS) and the Portuguese Holy Ghost Society - both located in Stonington Borough, Connecticut.
Looking forward to seeing you at the Gales!
Cheers,
Greg and Paula

What is the Autumn Gales?
The Autumn Gales is entering its second decade of being the premier rough water event on the East Coast and is held in one of the few areas in the U.S. that has tidal currents worthy of holding British Canoeing's Advance Sea Kayak Leader Training. Fisher's Island Sound is an amazing location and this event strives to create unique experiences to learn and gain experience with rough water paddling.
Our high level coaches and rough water guides create an environment where paddler's can test their comfort zone, gain confidence and continue their skills growth and seamanship. We pride ourselves on a low coach/guide to participation ratio that allows for a lot of individualized coaching. The event is geared towards a variety of paddlers - those that have a solid foundation on flat water and have experienced some bouncy water to those looking to hone their skills in the bigger stuff.
Come be a part of a fun community and sub-culture of rough water paddlers that are empowering to be around - sharing knowledge, exploring and building confidence.
