MasterCraft's Women-Focused Watersports Clinic Returns to Coeur d'Alene in 2026
MasterCraft is bringing 40 free slots to Coeur d'Alene on Aug. 15 for its Let Her Rip women's watersports clinic, now in its sixth year.
Forty free spots on Coeur d'Alene's water are up for grabs this August, and the lottery to claim one closed Thursday.
MasterCraft's Let Her Rip program, a women-and-girls on-water clinic series now in its sixth year, will make its Coeur d'Alene debut on August 15, 2026, as one of four new stops on a six-city national tour. The registration lottery, which opened March 5, closed March 20, with selected participants set to be notified March 27. Anyone who entered still has that notification date ahead of them.
The clinic is free. Participants will work alongside professional watersports athletes Meagan Ethell, Alexa Score, Ashley Kidd, Ali Garcia and Ansley Pritchard, receiving hands-on instruction across boat handling, docking and a wide range of watersports disciplines. MasterCraft describes the program as designed "to meet participants at every experience level and empower them to feel capable, confident, and connected both in and behind the boat." Past Let Her Rip events have drawn participants ranging in age from 5 to 70, reflecting the breadth of the program's intended reach.
Coeur d'Alene joins Pueblo, Colorado, Raleigh, North Carolina, and Little Rock as new markets on the 2026 tour, which also returns to Knoxville, Tennessee, and Seattle. The full schedule runs from late June through late August, with the Coeur d'Alene stop the second-to-last of the season before the tour closes in Seattle on August 21.
MasterCraft introduced a lottery-based registration system for 2026 specifically because of growing demand. The company said the expanded schedule is "intentionally designed to reach different communities across the country, creating new access points for women and girls to experience the program while deepening MasterCraft's presence in strategically important markets that play a key role in the brand's growth and long-term dealer network strategy."
Progressive is sponsoring the campaign for the third consecutive year. The 2026 program was announced in timing aligned with International Women's Day on March 8, framing the initiative as part of MasterCraft's broader push to advance inclusivity in watersports.
Registration for the Coeur d'Alene stop, as well as other tour dates, was handled through mastercraft.com/let-her-rip-movement.
