What is the average age of the sailors in your area?

I am genuinely curious as to the age of the average sailor in people's areas. I am in my early 40s and I'm one of the youngest sailors in my area out of the four or five yacht clubs in about 100 km. Most of the sailors at a recent Regatta were in their sixties or seventies. I feel like there is a sailing apocalypse coming for my town and the not so far future.
