While it’s a pretty wet and dreary day here in Freeport today, the weather didn’t keep this old salt from visiting the Sea Bags store. Our newest friend, and her captain, sail their 36 Pearson up from Padanaram Harbor, MA each summer and have been visiting the coast of Maine with their 13 year-old black lab, Max, for the last 13 years. She had heard about the Sea Bags store in her hometown (we love how news spreads like that). She decided to come check out the place where we would eventually turn their old sails one day into something useful that also helps the environment as well. As much as they love the beautiful state of Maine, she loves her new Sea Bag that tells her retirement story equally as much.

Sail Away with Sea Bags
August 24, 2010 4:00:00 AM EDT
For some of us, this is the last week of summer already. Wow did it go by quickly! But we had a great one thanks to all of you. So what are you going to use for your last beach hurrah? We like Natty Style’s advice: “Sail away with Sea Bags.”
We love the way she continues, “You’ll need the usual: a barely there sundress, your fave espadrilles – worn to shreds from a summer of fun, and a bikini or two. But you’ll also need something in which to tote these weekend essentials, PLUS a bag that’ll work for dragging goodies onto the beach itself.” Which, of course, is where Sea Bags sails in.
Thanks Natty Style for including us!
Is there anything better than an outdoor shower?

We love summer! The fresh air, the salt and the ocean. Love to see the boats go by and really love a good outdoor shower. There is something so refreshing about the hot water and the cool air at night or cool water on those sticky days. Not to mention it’s really nice not to track the sand and dirt inside the house. We love these Sea Bags curtains from recycled sails we did for a customer on Isle au Haut. Where is your favorite place to shower outdoors?

On the Beach with Sea Bags
August 12, 2010 6:00:00 AM EDT
How many times do you read the magazines that are strategically tucked in the airplane seat in front of you? Well if you are flying United Airlines over the next month, definitely pick up the August issue of Hemispheres! You’ll catch our Anchor Tote amongst other cool companies. We are especially impressed with the beach toy set from Green Toys, which are made from recycled milk jugs.
We’ve seen Sea Bags used on the beach for carrying towels, books, suntan lotion and snacks, but they also make for a great bag to carry the kids’ toys. The sturdy rope handle allows you (or them if you’re lucky) to carry a ton of toys and perhaps the best part is that you can wash the tote when you get home and hang it to dry. It’ll be ready when you are to hit the beach again!
