rdf:langString Sail Canada (formerly the Canadian Yachting Association) is Canada's governing body for the sport of sailing. Sail Canada is a "Member National Authority" of World Sailing . Organization of sailing in Canada is divided into four groups: yacht clubs, Provincial Sailing Associations, class associations, and Sail Canada itself. Yachting and sailing clubs may provide their members with moorage for their boats, boat launch facilities, organize regattas, put on social functions, and/or provide training to children and/or adults. There are ten Provincial Sailing Associations (PSA) that are responsible for organizing instructor courses, registering keelboats and providing PHRF rating certificates and sail numbers, and training provincial team athletes. Class associations (such as the Laser class) are responsible for measuring and registering one-design boats, and organizing regional, national, and international regattas. Sail Canada is responsible for coaching national team athletes, including Olympic sailors, designing sailing and power boating courses, and registering and insuring instructors.
