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.

Thank you to all who have supported our project thus far.
