Most recent filing: Tax Year 2025.
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.

Revenue Breakdown (Part VIII — most recent year)
Form 990, Part VIII — Statement of Revenue. Includes, but is not limited to: Line 1 = contributions and grants (including member dues reported as contributions). Lines 2a–2f = program service revenue (activities that directly further the organization's exempt purpose). Line 3 = investment income. The specific mix varies by organization type. Source: the organization's own sworn filing.
| Line | Description | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| 12 | Total revenue | $29,951 |
| 1f | All other contributions, gifts, grants | $26,550 |
| 1h | Total contributions and grants | $26,550 |
| 3 | Investment income | $3,401 |
Most revenue is reported in a single category this year. That can be normal for some org types; see the source filing for detail.

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): 2
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.
| Name | Title | Hours/Week | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bradford Larson | President | 1 | Volunteer |
| Allison Orchid | Treasurer | 0.3 | Volunteer |
| Sandra Baldridge | Secretary | 0.2 | Volunteer |
| Farley Fontenot | Director | 0.2 | Volunteer |
| Ann Graham | Director | 0.2 | Volunteer |
| Patrick Gibson | Director | 0.2 | Volunteer |
| John Cardenas | Director | 0.2 | Volunteer |
Programs (Part III — most recent year)
Form 990, Part III — Statement of Program Service Accomplishments. These are the activities that directly further the organization's exempt purpose. Expenses, grants, and revenue are as reported in the organization's own sworn filing.
Support for local regattas (Battleship Texas). Supports competitive sailing
Develop amateur athletes for sailing competition. Contribute towards infrastructure required to successfully run sailing competitions. Purchase of replacement race committee boat to replace aging unit and refurbishment of another race committee boat.
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
No conflict of interest policy reported. This question is part of Form 990’s Part VI governance disclosures. A written policy documents how the organization identifies and manages situations where a board member, officer, or key employee has a financial interest in a decision — and how those individuals step back from related votes. The IRS does not legally require this policy. Many volunteer-run clubs manage these situations through informal norms rather than written procedure; formal documentation becomes more common as organizations grow in size and operating complexity.
Whistleblower Protection Policy
Form 990, Part VI — Line 13
No whistleblower protection policy reported. Without a documented process, a staff member or volunteer who notices irregular transactions has no protected channel to report it — and no written assurance they won’t face consequences for raising the issue. The IRS added this question in 2008 following Sarbanes-Oxley. Absence does not imply wrongdoing; many small clubs haven’t formalized this in writing even when informal norms are healthy.
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
No independent compensation consultant reported for the most recent year with Schedule J data (2023). Executive pay was set through internal board processes — a compensation committee, comparison to prior years, or board vote — without outside benchmarking. This approach is common among nonprofit organizations. An independent consultant provides external market data and a documented rationale; its presence or absence is one piece of context among several when reading compensation disclosures.
Equity-Based Compensation
Schedule J, Part II — Per-person compensation detail
No equity-based compensation reported. This is typical for nonprofits, which have no shareholders and cannot issue ownership stakes. In the for-profit world, equity-based instruments align executive incentives with shareholder value; the nonprofit analog uses different mechanisms such as retention bonuses or deferred compensation. None of the organizations in the sailing and yacht club corpus report equity-based compensation.
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.

As stated in the organization's 990 filing.
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.
