While we’ve seen our fair share of unique boats, but this custom VW Tritoon is likely to remain unrivaled! Check out last weekend's article about her via the link below.

Utilizing an original VW Bus, she was carefully designed and constructed atop three aluminum amas. The fun doesn't end there- the design includes working "headlights" and "taillights", while the originial steering wheel serves as the helm.

This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime boat! Learn more at https://tinyurl.com/VWTritoon

A big congratulations to our friend and fellow J/7 sailor, Alison Brainard Hall, on embarking on an exciting new adventure with her J/7, “Superstar”!

Commissioned and launched just before Labor Day, Ali sailed “Superstar” to victory in her very first regatta just one week later, sharing the podium with fellow J/7 “Wings of the Wind.”

Ali and Superstar are a welcome addition to J/7 Fleet 1 here in Charleston, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for this exciting new program!

Up next: the Charleston Ocean Racing Association Double Handed Race tomorrow.

Good luck, Superstar — sail fast! ⛵️🏆

On this day in 1968, French sailor Bernard Moitessier left Plymouth to start the 1968 Sunday Times Golden Globe Race. He sailed aboard the 39ft steel ketch, Joshua and famously abandoned the race "to save his soul", and continued sailing, eventually making landfall in Tahiti on 21 June 1969.
