60 years of Sailing Club at UCI
UCI Sailing is dedicated to fostering a community of passionate sailors, ranging from beginners to competitive racers. Our mission is to promote nautical excellence and sportsmanship through teamwork and a shared love for the water.
Established as a cornerstone of UCI's club sports, the Sailing Club has a long-standing history of navigating the coastal waters of Southern California. From humble beginnings to representing the university in collegiate regattas, our journey is defined by the waves we've conquered and the friendships we've built along the coast.
This year marks 60 years of Sailing at UCI! These past 60 years have been full of competitions all over the Pacific Coast Conference, traveling as far as states like Hawaii and Washington, solidifying the team's impact across the country. We look forward to making many more memories!

Heyo! I'm Kai Brennan. I am a second year here at UCI and I am studying MSE. I grew up in Hermosa Beach and started sailing in High school and I LOVE it. In addition to the UCI sailing team I sail on a match racing team at Balboa Yacht Club and some other keel boats year round. I love the community I've found at the UCI sailing team and I hope you join us!! Other than sailing I am involved in the nuclear facility here at UCI. I love the environment and I am hoping learning about nuclear can set me up for a job that helps that. I am also on the board of survivor club! Survivor club scratches the filmmaking itch in my mind and is abolute strategical MAGIC. I am also an actor and waiting for my big break... Ask me any questions about anything! See ya on the water!

OUTREACH CHAIR
Lily Trevisani '29
Hi! I'm Lily, I'm a second year Biological Sciences Major, with a minor in Management. I have been sailing for 12 years all over the world, but I have to say UCI Sailing is my favorite. I grew up in Honolulu, Hawaii, but I went to high school in the south of Spain. I have experience sailing on CFJ's, 420s, ILCA and keel boats, so feel free to ask me anything! I run the Instagram, so just shoot me a DM! Other than sailing, I'm on PR for Biosciences Student council, and in Red Cross Club at UCI, and I'm always down for a side quest. Fun fact, I speak three languages! For the team, I run the social media and website, and manage recruitment! I'm excited to help grow the team and make many more lasting memories this year!
