New Commodore Aims For More Inclusive Yacht Club

Flora Digby fell in love with boats after attending the Boat Show in 1989. She and her husband bought a boat and put their boat in the Jackson Park Outer Harbor. There, they met members of the Southern Shore Yacht Club. More than 30 years later, Digby is the Commodore of the Southern Shore Yacht Club, where she is the second African American woman to hold the post.
