The Mayans, the solstice and Sailstice. An auspicious year?
Or does the world end? Some predict the end of the world, others a great leap forward. Either way, it makes sense to celebrate the sun, the solstice and sailing. (Read more)
Welcoming new sponsors
We welcome Discover Boating and Pettit Paints aboard as supporters. Summer Sailstice is a grassroots effort to create a day to celebrate the activity, i.e. sailing -- not the 'stuff' but the action of getting on the water under sail.
And we appreciate the support of generous companies who support that goal. Both Discover Boating and Pettit Paints have joined to help get the world sailing!
It's an election year -- Get Out the Boat!
Hobie Island sailors are doing it all around the world. Hobies will also be out in force on the summer solstice when they sail their North Americans at the Sausalito Yacht Club in California. One way to vote for sailing or for your particular fleet is to get out your boat and sign up for Summer Sailstice. The more the merrier.
Did you get the t-shirt?
The Peace, Love & Sailing shirt always puts a smile on your face. It reminds everyone of how it feels to step off the shore, onto a sailboat and celebrate Summer Sailstice together. Order now to spread some Peace, Love and Sailing!
Thanks Cruising World!
The widely traveled, widely enjoyed cruising publication Cruising World recently invited their readers to tear themselves away from the pages of the magazine for a day to go sailing on Summer Sailstice. Have a read.
