Most recent filing: Tax Year 2021.
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.

Historical Trends
Revenue vs. Expenses
Net Revenue / Operating Margin
Net Assets
Financial Health Snapshot
Derived from IRS 990 filings. Figures are as reported — they reflect a single point in time and should be read alongside the full filing history and program context above. No benchmark is a verdict.
Operating Margin
Net revenue as a share of total revenue. Positive = surplus; negative = deficit.
Sector context: sailing organizations typically run thin margins by design. A small surplus signals structural balance; a deficit is not automatically a warning without multi-year trend context.
Cash + investments (months, upper bound)
990-EZ combines cash, savings, and investments on one line, so this reflects a ceiling, not a precise liquid reserve.
A common practitioner benchmark: 3–6 months of unrestricted reserves provides a buffer for seasonal revenue gaps or unexpected costs. This figure is not a compliance threshold.
Revenue Change (YoY)
Change in total revenue from TY2020 to TY2021.
A single year of revenue change is a data point, not a trend. See the historical trends above for multi-year pattern context.
Revenue Trend
| Tax Year | Period | Form | Revenue | Expenses | Net Revenue | Net Assets |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TY2020 | 2020–2021 | 990 | $165,070 | $378,505 | -$213,435 | $106,814 |
| TY2021 | 2020–2021 | 990EZ | $147,833 | $211,703 | -$63,870 | N/A |
Revenue trend is a filing-history view. It helps you compare operating periods, not infer the club's live condition today.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| 11a | RELATED APPAREL | $105 |
| 12 | Total revenue | $165,070 |
| 1f | All other contributions, gifts, grants | $110,155 |
| 1g | Noncash contributions included in 1a-1f | $14,905 |
| 1h | Total contributions and grants | $110,155 |
| 2a | SAILING INSTRUCTION | $54,810 |
| 2f | Total program service revenue | $54,810 |
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): 45
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| LIZ BARKER | DIRECTOR | 5 | Volunteer |
| KARL D FELGER | DIRECTOR | 5 | Volunteer |
| DAVID W HILDEBRANDT | TREASURER | 2 | Volunteer |
| MICHAEL SHEEHAN | DIRECTOR | 1 | Volunteer |
| KATHY VANDERHORST | DIRECTOR | 1 | Volunteer |
| GINA M TREBILCOCK | PRESIDENT | 30 | Volunteer |
| TOM EINHOUSE | DIRECTOR | 1 | Volunteer |
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
Not reported — this organization files Form 990-EZ, which does not include this schedule.
Part VI governance questions — including the conflict of interest policy — appear only on the full Form 990. This organization files a shorter form available to smaller or specialized filers. Full 990 filers must answer these questions and make the responses public.
Whistleblower Protection Policy
Form 990, Part VI — Line 13
Not reported — this organization files Form 990-EZ, which does not include this schedule.
Whistleblower policy disclosure is part of the full Form 990’s Part VI. The IRS added this question after Sarbanes-Oxley to encourage nonprofits to adopt protections analogous to those required of public companies.
Officer & Key Employee Compensation (Part VII)
Form 990, Part VII — Named individuals with reportable compensation
Part VII requires individual disclosure of all officers, directors, trustees, key employees, and the five highest-compensated employees earning above the reporting threshold. The individuals listed here are from the most recent available filing.
| Name | Title | Comp from Org |
|---|---|---|
| RUSTY DEANE | EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR | $17,000 |
Compensation shown is reportable compensation from this organization only, as disclosed in Part VII. Most volunteer-run sailing clubs report $0 officer compensation, while larger organizations may report paid executive roles. The figures above show exactly what this filing reports for named individuals.
Independent Compensation Consultant
Schedule J, Part I — Organizations filing when comp exceeds $150K
Not reported — this organization files Form 990-EZ, which does not include this schedule.
Schedule J is a supplement to the full Form 990 only. It captures how high executive pay was set and what perquisites were provided.
Equity-Based Compensation
Schedule J, Part II — Per-person compensation detail
Not reported — this organization files Form 990-EZ, which does not include this schedule.
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.
10 transactions found across all available filing years. Sorted largest to most recent.
| Person / Entity | Relationship | Type | Amount | Year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| — | — | loan | $0 | 2020 |
| — | — | loan | $0 | 2020 |
| — | — | loan | $0 | 2020 |

| MCPC HOLDINGS | RELATED | loan | $638,595 | 2020 |
📋 Context note. Where available, transactional context may be supplemented by audited financial statements or other independent disclosures that are not derived from 990 XML data alone. When an independent audit confirms the terms, repayment schedule, and arm's-length pricing of a related-party loan, the transaction carries a materially different risk profile than the 990 alone would suggest.
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.

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.
