Purpose

The goal of the Boatpool arrangement is promote sailing broadly among our members. The boats can be used for both leisure and regatta sailing. We also think that boat ownership in the future will be more based on sharing than owning.

Boatpool members have the opportunity to form racing teams on their own as well as to participate in organized training and regatta sailing. KNS aims to replace the boats in the Boatpool every 5 years. 

Members of the KNS Boatpool have the opportunity to represent KNS at regattas Internationally during the winter

How to join

Joining KNS Boatpool is easy. Contact lene@kns.no for J 70 / 80 and Dinghies.

You can join with your team (all team members must be member of KNS and have a Boatpool subscription), or you can join alone.

KNS will provide the contact information for other boatpool members so they can get in touch, find new teammates and plan training.

How it works

KNS Boatpool members must be registered before they can use the boats. Registration to the Boatpool requires an annual membership fee, KNS membership and basic sailing knowledge.

A general introduction program is mandatory and practical check-out is added to the boat pool fee to new users after registration. Thereafter, users are given access to use the boats using KNS online booking system. A Boatpool Facebook group is established to promote exchange and discussions among Boatpool users.

Use the boats in regattas
The boats can be used in local regattas. To use the boat in regattas such as Grundig Sailing Cup, Grundig Hankø Race Week and Kongens Serieseilaser you just have to book the boat in the booking system.

It is also possible to use the boats in regattas outside of Oslo. Please contact lene@kns.no for more information.
