| CLEAN REGATTA | |
 Sailors for the SeaWe pledge our commitment to clean waters and shores by participating in Sailors for the Sea's Clean Regattas program. We vow to fulfill, and encourage others to fulfill, the goals and requirements of Clean Regattas as set forth by Sailors for the Sea, and to work to protect and restore our waters for the use and enjoyment of current and future generations.
WasteStrategies is on board to help meet the goal of a Bronze level certification this year by leading the recycling efforts. The Daily awards will be stainless steel water bottles and the Overall trophies are glass, both are eco-friendly and practical.
Sailors can do their part by helping with Gray Water Reduction - in order to reduce runoff of phosphates and nitrates into the Bay, CBYRA asks all race participants to use only water when washing boats. If not, only non-toxic cleaning products should be used, which can alleviate the pressure on marine life. |
