For the first time in the team`s history, Palm Beach Sailing Club will have a group of Opti sailors that are scheduled to compete in the 2024 Optimist National Championships this July in Sandusky, Ohio.
This is a remarkable achievement, and the young sailors are thrilled about the opportunity to represent the @pbsailingclub, the @ysfpb and our community on such a prestigious stage.
However, making this dream a reality requires significant financial support. The team is currently raising funds to cover coaching expenses, travel expenses, accommodation, equipment, and other essential costs to ensure our team can compete at their best!
