Dear Santa Monica Bay Sailing Foundation,
It means so much to me that you continue to fund my sailing. Because of SMBSF’s fantastic support, I was able to sail all summer and I won the award for “Most Improved.” I couldn’t have done this without you.
I just enjoy being in a boat so much; I feel it completes me. This summer I sailed three days a week, two days in a laser and one in an FJ. I received excellent coaching perspectives that changed my sailing style for the better. I have found a year-round crew and I have started to become a competitor.
The summer camp at CYC is fantastic, the coaching is excellent, and the camp is fun all around. On my days off I would get bored and yearn for the wind in my sails.
Again I want to say thank you so much. If there is ever any opportunity for me to help you get your message out or volunteer, please let me know. By the way, I am busy trying to recruit newbies from my school to take up sailing!
Thanks again,
Isaac Yelchin
