Celebrate Summer Sailstice!

Help Planet Earth Stay Crystal Blue & Vibrantly Green!
(San Francisco, CA)- Founded in 2001 by John Arndt, as the global, annual celebration of sailing held on the weekend closest to the summer solstice (June 22nd), the annual "Summer Sailstice" sailing event is free to all participants and has grown from 200 boats signed up in 2001 to almost 5,000 boats today!

Since many sailors join in the fun on many different boats, the actual number of Summer Sailstice sailors participating is estimated at almost 19,000 annually.

In joining with Sailors for the Sea, Summer Sailstice (http://www.summersailstice.com) strives to inform and mobilize sailors, their families and communities to enjoy and conserve the beauty of the oceans and while raising awareness of human impacts on the fragile marine environment and wildlife.  For more Summer Sailstice sailing information
