Brothers of the Coast
in South- Africa



Welcome to the Sailors' site

Welcome to the web page of the South African branch of the International organization of the Brotherhood of the Coast.

The Brotherhood of the Coast is about sailing, and everything related to sailing. The Brotherhood of the Coast is also about the motivating to be involved with sailing and self being involved.

The majority of these pages are about the organization itself, the founding and purpose. The rest is about the local branch, the activities, the program for the current year as well as contact detail.
