Applications Open for Boat Grant

The C. Thomas Clagett, Jr. Memorial Clinic and Regatta is accepting applications for the 2018 Clagett Boat Grant Program through the end of September. Two 2.4mR boats will be available as part of the Clagett Boat Grant Program. Applications can be made by individual sailors or community sailing programs in North America.

The Boat Grant Program debuted in 2016 with a Sonar donated to the Y-Knot Sailing program in Lake George, NY. In 2017, two 2.4mR singlehanded boats were granted to two sailors in Canada, one from Ontario and one from British Columbia. "These two sailors come from well-supported community sailing programs able to provide support to these sailors as they work toward their individual sailing goals," commented Clagett president and co-founder, Judy Clagett McLennan. Both sailors participated in the 2018 Clagett Clinic and Regatta and raced in the Clagett and US Para Sailing Championships held in Newport, RI, at the end of June.
