2018 Narragansett Bay Racing Season Outline

We will be racing in Bristol Harbor every Wednesday evening in Bristol Yacht Club’s Millard Series for 12 evenings beginning May 30. In addition, there will be 2 weekend events. The Sea Sprite Regatta for SS23’s will again take place at Bristol YC Sunday this year on Saturday, July 28th.  On Saturday, August 24, we will have our yearly informal race around Hog Island followed by a cookout at the Marino’s home in Bristol. The Herreshoff Classic Boats Regatta, will be held August 23-25 with one-design racing on Friday. A similar schedule last year drew only one sea sprite, and it is considered unlikely that this year’s event will draw more interest.

Tthe Nancy Belle award will be based on which boat scores best in scheduled races including the Sea Sprite Regatta, ‘Round The Hog, and the Millard series. Other racing shall be considered as well. Specific guidelines will be promulgated before the season begins.
