Zeil brings membership, boat scheduling, race series, regattas, and AI Sail Briefs into one mobile-native platform — built for US yacht clubs and sailing centers, not bolted onto a generic tool.

American sailing is having a moment — Zeil is built for it
The day-to-day of a club isn’t a generic membership database. Zeil handles the sailing parts natively: boats, fleets, race series, duty, and the weather.
Every member, dues, and credential in one roster.
Profiles with boat ownership, US Sailing certifications, and membership tier — full, junior, social, crew, racing. Self-service renewals with card and ACH, automated reminders, and lapsed-member workflows.
Club boats and member boats, booked without the clipboard.
A real-time availability calendar for club-owned vessels, plus a member-boat registry with PHRF certificates, sail numbers, and class. Per-vessel maintenance logs keep the fleet sea-ready.
Weekly series and season standings that score themselves.
One-design and handicap fleets (PHRF, Portsmouth, ORC), sign-up and scratch sheets, results entry, and season standings — scored to the current Racing Rules of Sailing. Duty rosters assign race officers fairly.
A briefing for every sail, written before you cast off.
Zeil reads the forecast, the boat, the skipper’s qualifications, and your club’s local knowledge, then writes a plain-English briefing for each reservation — conditions, a suggested sail plan, explicit safety notes, and sunset. It regenerates when the forecast shifts.
Reach the right members — not all of them.
Segmented email and push to racing members, cruisers, social members, or flag officers. Automated event reminders, weather alerts, and a club notice board keep the dock in the loop.
Open registration, take entries, run the regatta.
Create events with online registration and payment, collect waivers with e-signatures, register transient guests, and run multi-day, multi-fleet regattas — with entry fees paid out to your club via Stripe.
No other sailing platform does this. For each reservation, Zeil reads four things and writes a plain-English brief your skipper can trust.
Sail Briefs are advisory — your skippers always make the final call.

Generic tools treat a yacht club like any membership org — no race scoring, no duty rosters, no boat scheduling, no regatta payouts. Zeil is built sailing-first for US clubs, so the racing and on-the-water workflows are native, not bolted on.
