Hello Mr. Wright,
I just want to say how humbled and grateful we are for your generosity. Your financial support over the years enabled my son Liam to compete at a level of sailing we never thought possible. “Thank you” doesn’t quite express our gratitude but hopefully you understand how much this means to our family. ​

Liam will be sure to take many pictures and hopefully bring home a trophy or two from the summer circuit!!!

Dear Mrs. Wright,
I’m excited to share a summary of my sailing season and a few updates from this year as well!
This past year, I had the opportunity to compete in some of the most competitive C420 regattas on the East Coast. 
The 2025 season is already off to a strong start:
  • Team Race Midwinters – Jensen Beach, FL – 5th Overall 
  • Fleet Race Midwinters – Jensen Beach, FL – 48th Overall, 1st in Silver Fleet 
  • Mid-Atlantic Championship – Seaside Park YC, NJ – 5th Overall 
  • New England Championship – Sail Newport, RI – 14th Overall 
Each regatta has helped me improve as both a sailor and teammate, especially in high-pressure, national-level racing. I’m proud of our consistency this season and excited to keep building on it.
I’ve attached a few photos from the events, hopefully they give you a sense of how much this sport means to me. Thank you again for all your continued support , it’s made these experiences possible.
Warm regards,
Liam Marcell

Good morning. I wanted to say thank you for your generous donation to help me sail this summer and wanted to share the pictures you requested. i made gold fleet at both nationals and North Americans. At CJ Buckley my team didn't have a great regatta we ended in 14th, but we beat two of the best teams at the regatta. ​

Sailing Foundation of Barnegat Bay,
Thank you for giving me an amazing opportunity this summer. I had a great time traveling around the New England area and it would not have been possible without your financial aid. We competed in the C420 Nationals in Hyannis, MA, CJ Buckley Team Race in Greenwich CT, and C420 Nationals in Sayville, NY. We performed well, placing 33rd at Nationals, 14th at CJ Buckley, and 27th at Nationals. I am so glad I was given the possibility to travel and compete at the high level, continuing my sailing journey. I have made some visits to colleges this Fall hoping to gain a spot on a top collegiate sailing team. I attached a few pictures of Jules and I sailing this summer.
Thank you again, 
Maryn Demand
