Sail Martha's Vineyard

Connecting Island youth to their maritime heritage & building skills to last a lifetime

Sail Martha’s Vineyard was established in 1992 to offer programs for Island children in elementary sailing, seamanship and wooden boat building, and to attract historic vessels to the community. From modest beginnings, Sail MV has grown into an organization that has taught more than 2,000 children, produced a successful high school sailing team, and now offers an extensive range of programs in maritime education, rowing and sailing for young and old, seasonal and year-round residents.

 

Our thanks to the Z Blok suncreen company. They have generously offered to donate proceeds of their sales sold on line to Sail MV. Protect your skin and support Sail MV!

 

THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR INSTRUCTORS AND PARENT VOLUNTEERS. WE HAD A GREAT SUMMER. WE HOPE TO SEE EVERYONE AGAIN NEXT YEAR!

By the way....we have a Lost & Found Box at the Sail MV office. Are you missing a towel, a life jacket, foulweather pants or assorted other clothing? We will keep the clothes here until Labor Day and then they will be donated.
