Welcome To Dani Girl

Dani Girl is a J/120 racer/cruiser based out of Balboa Yacht Club in Newport Beach, California. Our mission is to support and grow the sport of big boat sailing by opening it up to a diverse and inclusive group of sailors. We believe in giving back to the community by sharing our passion, knowledge, and opportunities with the next generation of sailors.

  • We are deeply grateful to live and sail in such a beautiful coastal environment, and we celebrate and protect the ocean and natural surroundings that make this sport possible.
  • Dani Girl stands for teamwork, adventure, and respect for the sea — carrying forward the joy of sailing for all who wish to be part of it

Make a Plan

We sail around BYC. Join our WhatsApp groups. We maintain two lists of 12+ racers and 45+ sailors and we also trade opportunities with other boats in fleet. You know how to find us at BYC.

Check the race calendar

Let us (mostly Tim and Colon) know when you want to go. They assemble the crew and let you know if you are on. It takes a village to build a good crew. Spots are not guaranteed. We need to balance the crew and you might have to wait for your turn.

BackPack

Don't bring too much gear. We need to trim down weight to race and don't need a crowded ship. Bring the essentials. This includes a good spirit, and some goodies to share.
