At DownWind, we incorporate our values into our business. We feel a responsibility to the local community and the coastal environment that make Narragansett Bay such a phenomenal place to sail, to live, and to visit. We strive to develop and employ practices that respect and preserve these two unique assets.

DownWind tries to work with locally owned and operated companies. In all our interactions, we seek to strengthen and build honest relationships that foster a sense of community. We offer services - like PumpOuts, the sale and delivery of eco-friendly chandlery products, and the convenient removal of waste oil - that help boaters reduce their environmental impact. We use the most environmentally sensitive cleaning agents that can get the job done and minimize our waste and resource consumption.

We urge other boaters to recognize the fragility of the coastal environment. Please visit our Links page to see other Rhode Island organizations that have similar environmental goals. You can feel good about working with DownWind
