Ahoy, polloi! The Compo Yacht Club — Westport's "finest institution since 1920", founded the very week the taps ran dry — presents the club day bag. Heavy cotton canvas, contrast trim, and the burgee that flies a martini where lesser clubs fly a star, riding the front pocket like a patch sewn on by somebody's grandmother who did not ask permission.
This is the officially rated vessel for the club's daily circuit: clubhouse to market to seawall and home by the scenic route. Capacity: one bottle, one book, one sweater, keys, sunglasses, and one (1) very good sandwich. If it doesn't fit, the club maintains you didn't need it. The zippered main compartment means nothing blows out when the weather starts getting rough — a three-hour tour of the shoreline returns with everything it left with. The front zip pocket holds the small essentials, including the membership card no one has ever been asked to show.
Twelve-ounce heavy cotton canvas with reinforced handles — built like the club's reputation: sturdy, traditional, and capable of carrying more than it lets on. Any port in a storm; any errand in this bag.
The essential carry for beach walkers, market-goers, seawall picnickers, boat owners, boat wanters, and anyone whose yacht exists primarily in conversation. Pairs dangerously well with the club bottle riding in the main compartment and the tee on your back.
The fine print, read like a tide chart: 18" × 14" × 4.5" (19L), 100% 12 oz heavy cotton canvas, zippered main compartment, front zipper pocket, 24.5" self-fabric handles. Three trims: natural, navy, maroon. Machine wash cold — remarkably, the only club tradition that survives modernization. Printed to order in the USA; profits support hunger relief.
Welcome aboard. Dues are one olive.
