Help us deliver the Sandbagger BULL to Gibson Island for her Downrigging!

Two Sandbagger boats, BEAR and BULL, have their home at the National Sailing Hall of Fame in Annapolis Maryland. BEAR will be on loan to the DSC through the month of October.

BULL and BEAR are modern reproductions of sandbaggers based on ANNIE, a sandbagger with a winning history launched in 1880 and raced in Georgia, Florida and Long Island Sound. Over 130 years later, ANNIE is still around, on display at Mystic Seaport Museum.

The departure will be at 10AM and the boat should arrive at GIYS in the early afternoon. You will need to coordinate ride sharing with other volunteers, so please make sure your contact info is up to date on your profile.
