SAILORS & on shore supporters unite for Beryl relief efforts.

 
As sailors, we travel to the most beautiful remote paradise places; NOW, the places need us. We are also in a unique position to arrive to remote places in need and fast if the weather allows. Time to use your superpowers and unite.
 
Beryl was the second named storm in 2024 and the earliest Category 5 hurricane ever recorded in the Atlantic. It has especially hit the small and remote islands of Carriacou, Petit Martinique, Petit Vincent, Mayreau, Union, and other small Caribbean islands hard.

Volunteer as Crew

Many boats may want to sail in but don’t have the resources or capacity. Lend you hand. Here’s the beauty of a vessel that, without hesitation, is sailing south soon to support. 
 

Crew needed in Anguilla! (Or Sint Maarten or further down the chain)

“Our entire project was geared to go here. A dream. We are still going! I can use all of your help. Encouragement, logistics, ideas, Funding, contacts, and your physical presence. I will have two crew. By next Saturday. It would be best to have four, five or six would be better. If anybody’s got a wild hair, get on a plane to Anguilla! We are going together as many things as we can hair in Anguilla, and set off as soon as we can. Which includes when the weather Lets us. Thanks for any help you could be to make this long-term dream come true. The mothership of our project in Carriacou.” Contact Harold: Whatsapp: +15129621641 or Facebook PM

The help needed now is urgent, and there is still a lot of unknowns about hurricane Beryl. What we have learned so far is that’s it bad. We’ll update this post when we know more. Remember that support to places you visit is ongoing. Keep visiting and keep exploring. And give back where you can, when you can.

Several boats are overturned and damaged on land, surrounded by debris and yellow caution tape, possibly due to a storm. The sky is overcast, adding to the scene's desolation.
