Saltwater Veterans

With humble beginnings in 2017, we embarked on our sailing journey as 'Four Men in a Boat,' a name that reflected our group of veterans navigating the waters of Sydney. As time passed and our mission grew, we evolved into the Saltwater Veterans in 2018. Our core vision remains steadfast: to cultivate a connected community of veterans and their families through engagement with water activities.

At Saltwater Veterans, we are driven by a deep sense of family and a commitment to serving our community. Our clothing brand represents the shared spirit and unity that fuels our pursuit of a common vision—to support individuals who, like us at some point in their lives, have sought assistance in re-engaging socially through the empowering and kinetic experience of sailing.
