The benefit sails are Saturdays: June 1, 8, 15, 22 & 29, from 1:00 P.M. – 3:00 P.M. aboard either the schooner Adirondack or the schooner America 2.0.

Each sail will include a standard bar and mimosas as well as a triumphant flying of their nearly 400 square foot spinnaker cloth Pride Flag.  The flag will be hoisted to the aft-leaded edge of their mainsail as they glide from Chelsea Piers, south on the Hudson River to the Statue of Liberty and back.  This Pride Flag is nearly half the size of schooner ´¡»å¾±°ù´Ç²Ô»å²¹³¦°ì’s mainsail and will certainly prove to be an epic and awe-inspiring experience for all those who see it.
