Kidz At Sea Foundation has again teamed-up with Budget Marine in their effort to raise funds for their program. ‘The Kidz At Sea program brings awareness of the marine Industry to youngsters finding their way in the professional marketplace.’ Ellen van Holland-Little, representative of Budget Marine, stated. ‘Being a major player in the Marine Industry we always struggle to find knowledgeable persons that can play a part in our organization. This program not only introduces youngsters to the sport of sailing but also emphasizes the skillsets needed to be part of this industry.’

‘The RIB donated is the first of a line of Carib Marine inflatable dinghies set to be sold at the Budget Marine stores in July.’ Van Holland-Little remarked. ‘The Carib Marine dinghies are targeted to the cost-conscious boater that still wants great performance and a dry, comfortable ride. It is a lightweight construction with a V-section fiberglass hull that cuts through chop and the tubes are made from Hypalon which is a good choice for Caribbean tough conditions.’
Garth Steyn, founder of the Kidz At Sea Foundation, continued: ‘Budget Marine has been a good supporter of the program and we need strong partners to continue to develop our program and reach out to more students. With a ticket for as low as $5 you have a chance of winning many prizes with the first prize being the dinghydonated by Budget Marine. The Carib Marine RIB will be displayed at our booth on Saturday so come have a look and buy your tickets!’
