The year 2025 stands out as a historic chapter in the Chase Sailing Club’s illustrious history. It saw the Club mark its grand 70-year anniversary, a milestone that was honoured and celebrated thanks to the diligent planning, support, and tireless efforts of an exceptional committee. Truly, the year’s achievements were an all-hands-on-deck affair, reflecting the spirit of teamwork that lies at the heart of sailing.
The Club inaugurated its celebration year by laying out carefully crafted plans aimed at celebrating its storied past, vibrant present, and promising future. The ensuing months were marked by spirited debates and in-depth discussions, and it was with the members at the very heart of these deliberations that an action plan was conceived.
In an extraordinary display of generosity and community spirit, the ABC Lives Project has once again charted a course for kindness. Prescribing to the ethos of ‘a rising tide lifts all boats,’ they’re harnessing the power of unity and camaraderie that’s inherent in the boating culture. Their mission? To send a fleet of donated boats to enhance the lives of the seafaring folks on the idyllic islands of St Vincent & the Grenadines.
This philanthropic initiative marks the second wave of donated vessels from ABC Lives Project. Calling on the well-to-do boat owners, they’re provoking an unparalleled level of charity in the marine community. These aren’t mere sailboats; they’re symbols of hope, vessels of opportunity that will surely spark a wave of positive change amidst the vibrant locals on the receiving end.
