Former BVI Sailing Team member Chris Brockbank donated $450 to the team on Monday afternoon. “I really wanted to give something back,” Mr. Brockbank said. He added that “travelling and meeting new people” were valuable experiences that he had with the BVIST. Coach Justin da Silva said the money will help cover expenses to attend two upcoming events — the St. Thomas Scotiabank Regatta and the Optimist North Americans Regatta in Kingston, Ontario. The team has eight youth sailors. The money was raised by Mr. Brockbank’s Cedar School International Personal Project, in which he organised a remote-controlled boat regatta at Brandy Wine Bay.
