May we remind you of some of the previous postings on this forum as well as on your site........ What and you NOW want to use Seabreeze to promote your organisation?
You viciously try and cause problems amongst the Land Sailing community and now you want to poach seabreeze members, what a LOW act......

GO AWAY !!!!!!

Let me explain it..... competitors pay $80-$100 to enter the championship which then gives the organisers the right to use YOUR sails to put the sponsors logo on.....

They then take a few pics and send them off to the sponsor to prove 'what good people are we' this makes the sponsor happy and gives legitimacy to the product donations.

And why use a winery as a sponsor....... well....... someone needs to come up with the tipple for a few guys sitting on the edge of an isolated salt lake on a long weekend.

Simple actually

(IMHO a sneaky cunning stunt...... poor form for a National group private buisness )

In the interests of this forums spirit, I'll ask that we not have a go at or criticize other members or their posts. Constructive criticism is as far as it should go.


Saying that, for a person or group to advertise on a forum they have consistently boycotted and publicly deplored, is a bit rich. I personally wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't much positivity or interest in this thread.

Catch you later

Just on the topic of advertising on sails, I take part in the Lancelin Ocean Classic, when you register you are given two stickers which you are required to put on your sail.

It's no big deal, in fact it makes me feel like a pro with sponsors stickers on my sail

Ok I can see this isn't going to stop. We'll leave the thread up so that if anyone wants to contact ALF or attend their comp, they know how to but I'm going to lock it before it degenerates further.

Please direct any questions or comments about ALF or their nationals directly to them on the link they have kindly supplied.
