2024 Best Photo (pictured here) honors went to Harry Quinn, member of Chatham Sailing Club, homeported in Savannah, GA. They braved a dubious forecast to have the best Sailstice raft-up yet, with 16 boats (and a few sail-bys from other clubs), live music, fresh shrimp, a sliding board and a pirate invasion!

Harry won a SunPower 1x100Watt bundle donated by Sun Powered Yachts.
