WORLD SAILING: "Sailing is dependent on the environment and by following a few simple rules of conduct when sailing we can ensure our sport has no negative impact on the environment. Through the very environment in which we practise our sport, sailors are already very environmentally aware and World Sailing has the following objectives to respect and safeguard our environment:

Develop and implement a sustainability programme for the sport and events
Increase and develop awareness of sustainability issues amongst all sailing stakeholders
Support the development of Olympic Games and World Sailing event venues that are sustainable for the environment, economy and community
Position sailing as environmentally aware

Plastic Offset Program: 2019 – 2020 50,000 KG Target Reached!

Starboard’s incredible Plastic Offset Program reached its 50,000 kg target of collecting plastic trash from the beaches in Thailand. Let’s take a look into what we have learnt over the last year.

Whilst it is World Environment Day and many of us feel that every day should have this focus, lets just take a moment to consider the environment around you right now. What does it provide you? Are you able to breathe deep, see nature flourish, can it grow your herbs, fruits and vegetables, can you play in any nearby water because it is clean and safe enough?

After this great reflection, how great does it make you feel, is it perfect or do you feel it could be better?
