We are one large family at ASA and all of us are affected by the news coming from those areas hit hard by Hurricane Dorian. We will try to update all of our affiliates about what is happening with our affiliates and instructors located in the path of this destructive force of nature. Here are some updates directly from our affiliates:
Navtours (Bahamas Sailing School) Update from Elizabeth
Thankfully, Navtours at its Palm Cay Marina charter base in Nassau was not in the path of Hurricane Dorian. Our cruising grounds of the Exumas were also not in the path of Hurricane Dorian and there was no hurricane damage to this section of the Bahamas. Our guests, our boats, our marina and our team members are all safe and secure. Our charter operations in the Bahamas continue uninterrupted. Our hearts are heavy, however, for our neighbors in the Abacos, Grand Bahama and other areas where they have experienced catastrophic devastation from Hurricane Dorian. Relief efforts are underway for these impacted areas of the Bahamas and more details of how you can help can be shared with you upon request. Thank you again for reaching out to us during this time.
Cruise Abaco Update from Patti
Our entire fleet was destroyed and we have suffered tremendous personal loss as well, our lives were in Abaco, it is surreal. Thank God our staff all survived and we are putting one step in front of the other and taking each day at a time. We are in the USA now where we have communications and can deal with the business at hand for us. Thanks so much for the support.
Body Holiday Update from Omar
I am happy to report that all is well with us at the Body Holiday. Dorian hit us as a tropical storm and caused almost no damage at all. Our deepest sympathies go out to the residents of the Bahamas affected by hurricane Dorian. We cannot begin to imagine the hardship the Bahamian people are going through. Please let us know the status of ASA team members working in the Bahamas when you receive word. We will keep them in our thoughts and our prayers.
