Kathy Sinnett
Kathy Sinnett started her sailing days by crewing for her dad on Snipes in Wisconsin. Over the years, she has sailed ice boats in Alaska and met her husband, Chris, while racing big boats (against each other). Through her years on the water, whether racing or cruising, Kathy has appreciated the camaraderie in sailing communities. She is happy to serve as the Events Vice Chair and the Captain of the Windward Women's program to promote a welcoming and fun atmosphere at the Halifax Sailing Association.
