Golden Rock regatta in St. Martin

posted Jan 22, 2019, 11:49 AM by AUGUSTA SAILINGCLUB   [ updated Jan 28, 2019, 11:31 AM ]

Darell Bragg looking for sailors to crew in the Golden Rock regatta in St. Martin

 Regatta is from November 12 - November 19  2019.   Courses will be around the island of St. Martin, from St. Martin to St. Eustasiius, (Statia),  1 day of leeward-windward racing at Statia, from Statia to St. Barts, and finally from St. Barts to St. Martin.  Boats will be be 51' Beneteau Sunsail charter boats, all new with 4 cabins and 4 heads, Air conditioned, electric winches, etc.  Very nice accomadations.

Airfare is included, estimated, and is from Charlotte to St. Martin direct on American Airlines.   Price per person, estimated depending on airfare, is $1895.00 for the week based on 8 people.  This includes $250.00 pp for food.  Plenty of beer is provided for all boats.   It includes cabin, 2 dinners, parties, airfare, and a whole bunch of fun!   I am looking for 3 couples, 6 singles willing to share a bunk, 3 singles who don't mind doubling the cost, and the work of sailing a big boat, or a mix. It really works well with 8 people.

Time is of the essence to guarantee boat and airfare.  My contact info is: Cell 706-825-6354  email  darrell@wabragg.com

Lightning Southeastern District Championships

posted May 25, 2018, 8:46 AM by AUGUSTA SAILINGCLUB

Congratulation to our new Southeastern District champion Josh Putnam and his crew, Kate O'Donnell and Stanton Bost. They sailed a great regatta, easily the most consistent boat out there. And it was a great regatta, we got in 8 races which due to the shifty conditions saw 7 different race winners. Beaufort Yacht and Sailing Club did a great job on and off the water. The steak dinner Saturday evening was outstanding. A lot of pictures were taken out on the water, will post a link to those as soon as I have it.
