Tiny Boat Regatta: June 1

 

Registration will open soon for our Tiny boat Regatta!

Join us this year for a day of racing in Tiny Boats (wooden sailboats less than 14 feet). We will be accepting registrations for racers 12 years old and up starting May 1st. This race is intended to be a fun event for the wooden small boat community. All wooden sailboats that meet the length requirements are allowed. This will be a day long event including a BBQ after the racing (tickets sold separately). We will publish race schedule shortly after registration goes live.

Stay up to date on registration and race information by checking our social media and this page! You can also get information by subscribing to our monthly newsletter. If you have immediate questions, please reach out to adultsailing@cwb.org

About the Race:

The Tiny Boat Regatta is an evolution on the El Toro regatta. We want extend the race invitation to all wooden boats under 14 feet!

CWB has El Toros, Swifts, Pelicans and a few others that will fit into the “14 feet and under” rule. You are welcome to use our boats during the race if you have an active sailing livery card on file or completed Youth Sailing 2 or equivalent.

You can also bring your own boat. If you choose this option, be sure to let us know your boat rating (if possible) when you finalize your registration.

Separate prizes will be awarded for each class.  A class is defined as 3 or more of the same type of boat. If you are bringing your own boat, but do not know the rating/handicap number of your vessel, you are still invited to race. Unrated vessels will not be competing for ranking in the races.  However, we will be awarding prizes to unrated boats for a variety of categories (e.g. Best dressed, coolest boat, etc.) Stay tuned to our website for more information!
