April Newsletter

April showers mean it's time to stock up on rain gear!  Sailing is no fun in soggy clothes, and we have just the fix.  Sturgis Boat Works has recently gotten our spring order of spray gear in, and we think you'll like the selection.

Just a reminder, it is never too early to book your SBW charters!  Our charter boats are in hot demand and they are often sold out way before an event.  We encourage our customers to book early in order to ensure a boat.  Thinking about Orange Bowl next year?  Call us now, we'll be booked by October!

In this newsletter you'll find our In-the-Water Open House announcement, our new shipping special, some great new Gill products, information on charter boats for sale, and our Hunter savings program!

We at SBW feel these products will be a welcome addition to any dinghy sailor's gear bag.
