As stated in the previous Post, Marshall Sanderlings have been built for fifty years. It is because these little craft have been designed and built to look and sail like their wooden counter parts, sailors such as myself and the others depicted in the following pictures, have chosen Marshall Sanderlings to explore and enjoy the Florida Bay.
Each year, for the past few years, another Marshall or two appear on the Bay, indeed, we now have so much interest that last year an annual Regatta, just to include Catboats was initiated. Not only did we have Catboats from the Florida Bay, we had boats that came from Michigan and Massachusetts. This year we expect a greater turnout than last year, it will be a three day event that will include a day of racing, a day cruise on the Florida Bay and a trip to nearby Black water Bay. For more information look at my post archives for a flyer of the Regatta.
