"Sail On, Sailor" 2025 Annual SAIL Awards, Installation & Culinary Tour of Navarre Breakfast

INDIVIDUAL TICKETS AND SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES ARE NOW AVAILABLE!

Inspired by the Beach Boys’ timeless song “Sail On, Sailor,” this year’s theme captures the spirit of perseverance and resilience that defines both the song and our Navarre business community. Originally written in part by Brian Wilson, the song tells two stories — one of a sailor navigating a difficult voyage, and another of life’s broader journey through challenges. Its nautical message of endurance and optimism mirrors the determination our businesses continue to show, especially during times of uncertainty.

Just as “Sail On, Sailor” remains a classic that endures across generations, so too does the strength, adaptability, and unity of our Navarre business community.

⚓  Join us as we kick off with the Annual SAIL Awards & Installation Breakfast on Friday, February 27, at St. Sylvester Catholic Church (6464 Gulf Breeze Parkway).
