The national family island regatta represents traditional bahamian sloop sailign at its best. Sailing regattas are as much about homecoming, family, and celebration as they are teamwork and good sportsmanship. This project is a natural fit into our portfolio of local organizations we support, as it brings together the community in celebration of its unique culture and heritage. The impact on the exumian people is significant.

The exuma sailing club is an after school and weekend sailing program that serves approximately 35 teenage boys between the ages of 10 and 18. The program includes weekly on water sailing clinics as well as participation in several sailing regattas throughout the bahamas. Our contributions were used for repair and maintenance of the clubs sailboat fleet as well as a monthly stipend for the clubs director. The exuma sailing club is a well established organization founded by dallas knowles in 2013.
