Jr. Sailing Fundraising
Prop Guards In 2017, the junior sailing world was rocked when a teen at Centerport Yacht Club was killed by a motorboat propeller during routine safety training. What most people don’t know is that 30 other people in the US died that same year from propeller-related injuries. This is a big problem. We need your help! Please help us with the funds necessary to install prop guards on all three of our program instructor boats. Each prop guard costs app. $250.00. JY15 Sails Once we are able to purchase the prop guards any additional donations will go towards the purchase of replacement sails (five sets) for our JY15 fleet. A suit of sails costs $350.00. Donations All donations will be collected by our Club Steward in the RYC office. All checks should be made to RYC. Please make a notation on your check: Jr Sailing
