Åsgårdstrand Seilforening

Åsgårdstrand Seilforening is a Norwegian sailing club on the Vestfold coast with its own harbour facilities and active club life covering dinghy, keelboat and cruising sailing. The website lists the domains seilforeningen.no and aasgaardstrand-seil.no and describes a small, resource-conscious association with pontoons, guest berths via Mooringo and internal IT and regatta systems. Beginners and advanced sailors can join Optimist and sailboard starter courses as well as training on Mondays and Thursdays from 18:00; the dinghy group shares updates on Facebook. Tour and offshore sailors use Tuesday regattas with RaceQs tracking, and members report long cruises along the Swedish coast as well as Atlantic and Transpac passages. Album pages also document activity in the J/70 and H-Boot classes plus club championships and dinghy sailing.

History

The website content shows that Åsgårdstrand Seilforening operates as an active Norwegian sailing association and runs domains and email via One.com under seilforeningen.no and aasgaardstrand-seil.no. The club describes itself as a small association with limited resources that still uses modern systems for club administration, regatta entry and harbour management, including StyreWeb, Manage2Sail in cooperation with the Norwegian Sailing Federation, Min Idrett, GNIST and Mooringo for permanent and guest berths. In tour and offshore sailing, Tuesday regattas are supported with RaceQs, including online streaming and replay analysis after racing. Long-cruise reports mention older members born around the mid-1930s who sailed to Scotland in 2017 or along the Swedish coast, as well as younger members with an Atlantic crossing, the Panama Canal and participation in the Transpac from Los Angeles to Honolulu. Photo albums document club events such as the J-70 Kick-Off 2026, H-Boot activity, club championships and extensive dinghy sailing. The dinghy group offers Optimist and sailboard beginner courses and trains regularly on Mondays and Thursdays.
