Services offered to members & prices
Be a member of Voile Québecis above all about being connected to the network of all those involved in the world of sailing in Quebec. It also means being informed of all the available training, all the events, and all the meetings that take place in Quebec and which bring together the main players in the world of sailing. Voile Québec members are also immediately covered by accident insurance wherever they sail in Canada.
Become a member and thus contributing to the success of Voile Québec also means ensuring the sustainability of our sport. It means ensuring that qualified instructors are there to train young sailors, and boaters of all ages who are discovering our sport or taking training to improve their knowledge and their level of skill, performance and safety.
For companies and associations, becoming a member means benefiting from a direct connection with boaters in Quebec, and having access to privileged visibility with schools, clubs, and boaters in general. A company that supports Voile Québec also promotes the rejuvenation of boating in Quebec, and ensures that in 5, 10 or 20 years, our marinas, our sailing clubs, and all businesses that offer goods and services to boaters will have a renewed clientele.
