Knickerbocker Sailing Association
The Knickerbocker Sailing Association (KSA) is a members club set up by and for gay, lesbian, Bisexuality, bisexual, and transgender sailors in New York (state), New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. KSA membership is open to all LGBTQ and straight people, and it has a goal of being a "friendly, nonjudgmental group of people that have joined the club to share new life experiences, on the water together". History KSA began in 1994, when founder Braden Toan asked around on Fire Island to find fellow people interested in establishing a gay sailing club. It had an inaugural trip in August 1994, when 13 gay men met in Jersey City for a sail aboard a 38-foot Irwin cruiser. In 2018, KSA had more than 150 members. Its fleet includes both sailboats and powerboats. While some members have extensive sailing experience, no sailing experience is necessary to join. KSA hosts various flotillas throughout the tri-state area, from Atlantic Highlands to Block Island to Provincetown. ...
