Any day on the water is a good day. Sea Bags are made of these days.

Sea Bags, our sustainability partner, from Portland, Maine, repurposes sail cloth to reduce landfill waste and delight customers with durable, made in the USA bags and accessories. Started more than 25 years ago, Sea Bags has diverted more than 1.5 million pounds of sails from the landfill.

Sea Bags collects sails through a network of passionate boaters, sailing clubs and sail lofts with sail redemption locations up and down the East coast at their 40 retail stores. For every usable sail, they offer a Sea Bags product in trade.

Visit Sea Bags in Race Village where they will be accepting used sails for trade.

Once a sail, forever a Sea Bag. Learn more here.
