EIN: 04-2081270 · EAST BRAINTREE, MA · Data spans: TY2020–TY2024

Most recent filing: Tax Year 2024.

A more recent filing may not yet be published.

Sailing's public record, made legible. All numbers come directly from this organization's own sworn 990 filing. Patterns are computed from years of filings — not assessments or judgments.

Read trends in context: compare like with like, note the filing year, and treat major disruptions (like 2020–2021) as discontinuities rather than a continuous baseline.

Missing or N/A does not always mean absent. It can mean the item was not disclosed on that form, not collected on that filing type, or not available for that year.

Officers & Key Staff (Part VII)

How to read this section

This is not a full staff directory. It is the subset of people the organization had to disclose in Form 990, Part VII (the officer, director, trustee, key employee, and highest-compensated employee section of the filing). Why this matters: a missing name does not mean a person was not employed or involved.

Total Volunteer Board Hours/Week (Selected Year): 106

Hours per week are self-reported by each officer on Form 990, Part VII. They are not verified.

Officers and directors as reported on Form 990, Part VII. These are typically unpaid, elected positions. If an officer receives compensation, it will appear in the Paid Staff tab.

Operationally, this section is most useful for understanding disclosed leadership structure, compensation visibility, and board labor — not for reconstructing the full staffing model of a club.

Governance & Transparency Signals

The IRS Form 990 is a sworn disclosure document — not just a tax return. Beyond financials, it captures governance policies, compensation practices, and relationships between insiders and the organization. Every category below comes directly from that filing. When a field is blank, it is often because this form type doesn’t require it, or the org doesn’t meet the threshold that triggers disclosure. That context is itself worth knowing.

Conflict of Interest Policy

Form 990, Part VI — Line 12a

Governance data not available for this organization’s most recent filing year. This can occur for newly filed returns not yet in the corpus, or for organizations whose XML filing did not include Part VI.

Whistleblower Protection Policy

Form 990, Part VI — Line 13

Governance data not available for this organization’s most recent filing year.

Officer & Key Employee Compensation (Part VII)

Form 990, Part VII — Named individuals with reportable compensation

No individual compensation reported for this organization in the most recent filing.

This is the norm for volunteer-run sailing clubs. Part VII still exists in the filing — it simply shows $0 compensation for all listed officers and directors, meaning this club is led entirely by unpaid volunteers. When you see compensation appear here in other organizations, it marks a meaningful transition: the club has grown to the point where professional management was hired. The largest clubs in this corpus — those above $3M in revenue — are the most likely to have paid executive staff.

Independent Compensation Consultant

Schedule J, Part I — Organizations filing when comp exceeds $150K

Schedule J not required for this organization.

Schedule J is only filed when at least one individual in Part VII received more than $150,000 in total compensation. This organization doesn’t meet that threshold, so this schedule is not required. Among the 35.7% of organizations in this corpus that do file Schedule J, 35.7% used an independent compensation consultant. When Schedule J IS required, this question asks whether the board hired an outside firm — unconnected to the organization — to benchmark executive pay against market rates. It reduces the risk that a board approves whatever the ED requests rather than what comparable organizations actually pay.

Equity-Based Compensation

Schedule J, Part II — Per-person compensation detail

Schedule J not required for this organization.

Related-Party Transactions (Schedule L)

Schedule L — Transactions with Interested Persons (officers, directors, their families, controlled entities)

Schedule L requires disclosure of loans, grants, and business transactions between the organization and its own insiders — board members, officers, key employees, and their family members or entities they control. Nonprofits are not prohibited from transacting with insiders, but they must disclose it, follow fair-market-value standards, and document that the transaction benefited the organization, not just the insider. These disclosures exist because self-dealing is the most direct way nonprofit assets can flow to those in control.

No related-party transactions found in our data for this organization. Schedule L is only required when transactions occur — absence means none were reported, not necessarily that none occurred.

Schedule O — Supplemental Information (most recent year)

Organizations use Schedule O to provide additional explanation for answers given on the main 990 form. These are direct excerpts from the filed document.

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 7B

MAJOR GOVERNANCE DECISIONS NEED APPROVAL OF TWO-THIRDS OF THE MEMBERSHIP.

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION B, LINE 11B

A DRAFT OF THE FORM 990 WAS PROVIDED TO THE GOVERNING BOARD FOR APPROVAL PRIOR TO FILING.

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION C, LINE 19

GOVERNING DOCUMENTS, POLICIES AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ARE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC UPON REQUEST.

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 6

THE ORGANIZATION CONSISTS OF MEMBERS.

FORM 990, PART VI, SECTION A, LINE 7A

ALL MEMBERS HAVE VOTING RIGHTS FOR THE ELECTION OF GOVERNING BOARD MEMBERS.

IRS Source Filings

Source filings are IRS e-file records in XML (Extensible Markup Language) format — a structured data standard used by the IRS for electronic filing. If you open one of these links, it will look like code. That's not an error — that's what XML looks like. Harbor Commons processes this raw XML and presents the structured, readable view you see above.

Why this matters: the XML is the receipt. Harbor Commons is the reading layer on top of that receipt. If you ever need to verify a number, wording choice, or disclosure, the source filing is where to check.

Trends and shifts computed from this organization's own public filings across all available years. Signals highlight where numbers changed — not whether those changes are good or bad. Only people with inside knowledge of this organization can interpret what these signals mean.

Signals describe filing history, not the club's live operating state. The newest filing may still lag current reality by many months.
