US Sailing has named Charlie Enright as its new Ch US Sailing has named Charlie Enright as its new Chief Executive Officer, the organization announced Monday. Enright, a world-renowned sailor and advocate for sustainability, will lead the national governing body following an extensive executive search. Enright brings a wealth of experience to the role. He was a key member of the 11th Hour Racing Team, which won the 2022-23 Ocean Race—the first American team to do so. A veteran of multiple editions of the race, Enright previously skippered Team Alvimedica (2014-15) and Vestas 11th Hour Racing (2017-18). His sailing career is marked not only by competitive success, but also by a commitment to ocean health. He co-founded the 11th Hour Racing Team, which integrates environmental responsibility into high-level competition. In recognition of his achievements, Enright was named the Rolex Yachtsman of the Year in 2023 and was inducted into the Brown University Athletics Hall of Fame in 2024. A native of Bristol, Rhode Island, Enright graduated from Brown in 2008 with a degree in Business and Economics. He served as captain of the school’s sailing team and was a four-time Honorable Mention All-American Coed Skipper. As CEO, Enright will work with the US Sailing Board, staff, and volunteers to support the organization’s strategic goals, membership growth, and fundraising efforts. He will also oversee national programming and partnerships aimed at expanding access and participation in the sport. Enright currently lives in Barrington, Rhode Island, with his wife, Meris, and their children, Thomas and Maggie. #ussailing #newportbuzz #sailing
