Summer Sailstice Founder, John Arndt, Takes the Helm of Latitude 38

Congratulations to Summer Sailstice founder, John Arndt, on his newest venture as owner of West Coast sailing magazine, Latitude 38.

I’m excited to take the helm of Latitude 38,’ Arndt said, 'and look forward to working with the crew and build upon the legacy Richard created over the past 40 years with continued great stories, adventure, mischief, events and contributing to the fun and flourishing West Coast sailing scene.’

While captaining the publication will no doubt keep me busy, I’m thrilled to be in a position to take care of my business goals, while continuing to connect and encourage the global community to share the pure pleasures of sailing through the annual global celebration, Summer Sailstice

It’s shared activities and stories that build communities. Latitude 38 has had a unique ability to share the stories of West Coast sailing, while the annual Summer Sailstice event was created as an opportunity for sailors everywhere to connect in a global celebration while also publicizing and demonstrating sailing to the uninitiated - all those people who, so far, haven’t been lucky enough to call themselves sailors. I see both the monthly Latitude 38 and annual Summer Sailstice as opportunities to share the stories of sailors and sailing with the whole world.’  

At Summer Sailstice we’re looking forward to sailing with you, across the globe, and hoisting our sails in celebration on the weekend of June 24th/25th, 2017.

See you out there!  - Monica Grant
