CORONA EXTRA SAILBOAT

Constellation Brands and Crown imports have teamed up to bring the Corona Extra Sailboat to New York, Manhattan and New Jersey.

Sailing the Hudson and East Rivers, Coney Island and the beaches of Long Island beginning on July 1st 2021, the Corona Extra Sailboat will sail for two months to bring a positive message to the brand. While Corona Extra will always be associated with summer and beaches, we hope to add value to their national campaigns with the addition of the Corona Sailboat and take their advertising to a next new phase as they keep growing their consumer base and Corona Beer brand with the Corona Extra Boat.

With company VIP's coming out for free rides on the Corona Extra Sailboat, Photo Sails is a great way to enhance any campaign by offering these free Public Relations programs for use by sponsoring companies.

The Corona Sailboat will hopefully be the start of another long relationship with another new QUALITY client.

Having the public register through a website will allow for additional demographic research and to gauge program effectiveness.

POPULAR PRODUCT BRANDS EMBRACE SAILING BILLBOARDS AS INNOVATIVE ADVERTISING MEDIUM

(Heineken Light Sailboat)

Creativity in advertising has spawned some interesting ideas and new media options over time. According to Aaron Kiss, owner of Photo Sails, http://www.photosails.com (US Patent # 6,886,483) companies are now seeking unique and non-traditional media that they can claim for themselves with little competition which makes their brands stand out. Being creative is what gets noticed these days. After all, there is a difference between an impression and a QUALITY impression.

 

Heineken USA decided that they wanted to brand the The Hamptons and the beaches of New York's Long Island and Manhattan via the Hudson and East Rivers they sought a new branding medium, sailing billboards, that would create millions of unavoidable and unforgettable impressions for their brand and create the only advertisement on the visible horizon. Heineken USA has now tapped this "uncharted medium" that offers a synergistic branding opportunity for Heineken Light in key demographics during the vital summer months.
 
 
"People on the beach have the majority of their attention directed toward the empty horizon." says Aaron Kiss of Photo Sails. "Our floating billboards and sail ads take advantage of this fact." Photo Sails creates unique and "green" forms of branding that can be commissioned in major media markets as almost all major cities were established as port towns along navigable waterways. Generally speaking, billboards are not permitted on a beach, but there are no known regulations limiting what may be imaged on a sailboat's sail because it is the propulsive part of a vessel and necessary to that vehicle.
 
Now Heineken Light will join the other industry leading brands that have taken advantage of branding on sails with this new patented sail imaging technology. Photo Sails offers turnkey branding campaigns that include sailboats, captains, dockage, maintenance, insurance, fuel and even cleaning and catering.
 
Additionally, Photo Sails has been in development with North Sails to create multiple new sail imaging applications for the sail manufacturing industry which eventually will be available to the public.
 
Our sail ad campaigns are now accompanied by FREE Public Relations programs that include:
 
VIP Entertainment: The sponsoring company may use the daily sailing passes to entertain VIPs and/or high level employees. Day sails, sunset cruises and champagne cruises are available. This floating hospitality suite will allow for captive meetings with a surreal setting and help strengthen essential relationships.
 
Employee Rewards: Reward exceptional employees with an in-house property that will treat them and their friends or family to an exhilarating day sail or evening cruise with libations and snacks. Nothing is more relaxing and inspiring than sailing with family and friends.

Miller Lite has commissioned a 44 Hunter yacht for the Chicago marketplace beginning the summer of 2017 Through the summer of 2018.

With their fun Miller Lite Sailboat design branding the plethora of beaches, parks, roadways, and hundreds of buildings including the newly sponsored Miller Lite Navy Pier the response has been phenomenal.

The campaign has crossed mediums to become a viral sensation as hundreds of photos and videos are taken of the Photo Sails boat everywhere she targets.

As Photo Sails enters its 14th year of branding projects for MillerCoors quality brands, we look forward to expanding the Miller Lite Sailboats in multiple other markets nationwide.

 

Coors Light has utilized Photo Sails for three years to target the San Francisco Giants home games at AT&T Stadium and the Fleet Week celebrations in the Bay area. This is our 15th year of running successful campaigns nationwide for Miller Coors brands including in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Diego, Miami and now San Francisco. Photo credit to Dominic Gulley.

Coors Light has utilized Photo Sails to brand all of Long Island, the Hudson River up to Newbergh and of course all around the Manhattan area this last summer and now has doubled the order with two boats for this upcoming Summer. 15 years of repeat business illustrates the success of our campaigns. 

One vessel will be based in the Manhattan area and another traveling between Jones Beach and Montauk to cover their special events and perhaps some more Guerrilla Marketing targeting competitors beer products.

Managers used the Coors Light Sailboat to treat VIP's to day sails and to create the largest mobile billboard with a 50 foot beer bottle on the eastern seaboard. Thousands of New York residents and tourists alike took photos and video of the yacht as it passed by their locations making for a unsolicited viral campaign.

This next years contracts are from May 15th to September 15th or for a solid 4 months to ensure all events from Memorial Day through Labor Day in any New York coastal area including concerts like Electric Zoo in Manhattan and the Full Moon parties in Montauk are branded including 4th of July and dozens of other beach and waterside events.

Thanks to Photo Sails, Coors Light owns the beaches and coastline of New York and the surrounding bodies of water.

 

LEINENKUGELS-SLIDESHOW

Leinenkugel's is a Wisconsin brewing company that produces multiple fine beers including seasonal flavors such as Summer Shandy.

Seeking a novel way of gaining marketshare in Southern California, this one hundred and fifty year old brand, now owned by MillerCoors. found Photo Sails to be a great solution.

Leinenkugels2SlideshowMedium

The Leinenkugel's boat, one in Los Angeles and one in San Diego for the summer of 2013, has created over 40 million "direct line of sight" impressions not including the viral photo sharing that occurred.

Sailing 5 days a week for up to 8 hours a day, the Leinenkugel's boat helped explode sales and create awareness of the quality of this great new flavor. 

The Leinenkugel's sailboats have the ability to travel to other markets and even, with our exclusive agreement with Hunter Yachts, be shipped to hundreds of other US and international markets to be rigged to identical vessels and continue branding without further production fees.

The Leinenkugel's Sails are built with durability and will last for a dozen years or longer like many Photo Sails have lasted for.

The Vote Boat is headed to Miami to make a political statement at the Republican Governor's Convention to say thank you to John McCain for his supportive concession speech that supports Barack Obama as the next President of the United States of America. The 65' vessel will be sailing in downtown Miami from Friday 14th to Monday 17th of November.


 

The Vote Boat has moved to Fort Lauderdale and has grown over 24 feet to become a 65' yacht. It was spotted visiting the International Boat Show by many attendees. Locals seem to support the "left side" of The Vote Boat but boat show visitors seem to support the "right side". 

4 days of sailing in the Hudson and East Rivers of New York have proven that Barack Obama is way ahead in the polls at least here in the Big Apple.



Nine days and nine million impressions later, it is obvious to the crew of the Hunter 41 DS that Obama has a serious lead over McCain in Manhattan. Crowds cheered as THE VOTE BOAT tacked and jibed over 700 times this week in the Hudson and East Rivers. Camera flashes became complacent as hundreds of ferries ventured out of their way to get a closer look of the most hypnotically imaged sailboat sails in history, distracting all including tourists, fellow yachtsman, local residents, outdoor employees and office workers with a window view.

Now THE VOTE BOAT will make a second appearance in the battleground state of Florida, turning heads in the cities of Miami and Fort Lauderdale during the largest boat show in the world, the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show. With days to go before the most controversial election in recent history, PhotoSails.com is taking these measures to ensure that all registered voters make their voices heard and to be a part of this historical event.

The Vote Boat Photo Sailstm have been imaged and finished into a main and jib for the new 41 Hunter DS that is awaiting in NY.

Marketing on sails opportunities abound in the sailing world. Millions of usable sailing vessels are docked on thousands of bodies of water internationally. These vessels range in size and are involved in organized programs scheduled well ahead of time. If you’re a sailboat owner click here to register for possible sponsorship and if you’re a corporation looking for a boat in a targeted market click here to view registered vessels.

Sanctioned and organized sailboat racing exists in thousands of locations and take place throughout the year in both hemispheres. Many of these races seek corporate sponsorships, including marketing on sails, and partners to help cover the expenses of managing events. Funding helps cover the fixed and adjustable costs including rental of facilities, marketing of the class and event management.

We have compiled an incomplete list of some of the available marketing opportunities nationally and internationally broken down into different groups on the menu to the left..

This marketing on sails section's objective is for Photo Sailstm to present an outline of sponsored events aligned with outdoor advertisers. Photo Sailstm create sailing billboards in high profile environments helping products to gain exposure through utilizing untapped markets as an additional medium for signage and branding vehicle options. Our multiple programs are available worldwide.

Coors Brewing Company commissioned a 41 foot Hunter Yacht through our Corporate Custom program during the summer of 2008 in Los Angeles. Over 10 million direct line of sight impressions were attained along the beaches of Santa Monica to Huntington Beach. This sailing advertisement was the only visible signage on Pacific Coast Highway during rush hour traffic and targeted many beach related events from the International Surfing Championships to concerts and volleyball tournaments.

 

Coors Banquet has now signed up for a fourth contract to market the same area for three months during the summer of 2010.

 

The Coors Banquet Boat will now be appearing at Fleet Week in San Francisco from October 8th to the 13th.
