Sponsor

We are delighted that the title sponsor will be Salcombe Gin, founded by dinghy sailors inspired by the coastal vitality of Salcombe. We have many shared values and have been building a relationship over the past 3 years.  The sponsorship will, of course, include the chance to win Salcombe Gin on and off the water, but if you can't wait that long take a look at their online shop here. Did you know they also make Salcombe Rum?!

A representative from the charity has been invited to speak at the Summer Ball and we will be running a Grand Raffle, with some great prizes to be won and all proceeeds going to the charity.
