Buddy touched many lives in many ways: Persistence, hard work, competing fairly, winning with humility, sharing what we learn, giving generously, the power of humor, a passion for nature. These are the things you’ve told us you remember about your experiences with Buddy. The Sail-It-Forward Fund was created to give supporters of the documentary and its message the opportunity to do a little more. If you’re visiting this page you might be one of them.
MELGES: The Wizard of Zenda is being used as a teaching tool at sailing schools, a fundraising tool by yacht clubs, and a coaching tool for competition and sportsmanship. The Sail-it-Forward fund is used to benefit sailing organizations directly and to help us distribute the documentary to the largest audience possible.
