Our official race merchandiser, High Winds Graphix, was co-founded in 2014 by BYC members, Rob and Laurie Bunn to fill a need for crew shirts in the sailing network.

It’s a family-owned and operated business.
High Winds Graphix has rapidly expanded to create and supply innovative promotional products, wearables, vinyl graphics, signage, and online stores. They specialize in brand awareness and visibility while offering concierge-type services. They are proud of their roots in sailing, but now service business, education, association, yacht clubs, and athletic team clients locally in southeast Michigan and extended clients online.
