WA360
360 miles of engineless, unsupported boat racing circling Puget Sound
See you in 2027!

WA360: Racing In Place
WA360 is a 360-ish mile, human- and wind-powered adventure race through the Salish Sea, challenging racers to push their limits with no engines, minimal rules, and maximum grit.
Starting and ending in Port Townsend, it’s a raw test of seamanship, endurance, and creativity—welcoming anything that floats and can legally navigate the wild and unpredictable waters of the Pacific Northwest.

Race Route
Port Townsend is the starting place of WA360.
After traveling the length of the Puget Sound, racers’ first mission is to round Olympia Shoal in Budd Inlet.
Next up is to pass within two miles of Goat Island—the sentinel standing guard at the decision point between shooting Deception Pass or traveling the length of the Swinomish Channel.
Find the FL Y 10s PRIV buoy in Bellingham Bay (about a mile north of Fairhaven), and put it to port as you head north before continuing on to:
Point Roberts. This nubbin of America hanging like Alex Honnold off of Canada will show you some love before you head back south to:
Port Townsend. Right back where you started.

Time Limit
Two weeks. That’s how long you’ve got before the finish line closes up shop.
