Sea Bags, Official Race Sustainability Sponsor
Periodically, we publish articles from our race sponsors of interest or value to many race fans and competitors. This comes from Sea Bags, our official sustainability sponsor.
Sea Bags is proud to have been named the official sustainability sponsor for the 2022 Newport Bermuda Race and to support the Race's Green Team. As a company built on the idea to give retired sails a new life, sustainability is at the core of everything we do.
With the help of our network of sailors, we’ve been able to save over 700 tons of sails from the landfill—and counting! You can help contribute to our recycling efforts during our sail drive in Newport, RI, leading up to the race. Come and drop off old sails, and check out our limited-edition commemorative collection of Newport Bermuda Race products including a tote, wristlet, and a beverage bucket.
Big fan of the race but looking for something a bit more unique? Check out our Custom Collection and work with one of our designers who will take any special idea you have and bring it to life on a Sea Bags! Learn more about Sea Bags and join the Bermuda Race Green Team.
