BHYC Regatta Shipyard Cup Classic Challenge

Don’t miss the ‘Parade of Sail’ July 25 in Boothbay Harbor

Sun, 07/18/2021 - 5:30pm

The Classic yachts are coming, the PHRF sailboats are coming, the Boothbay Harbor One Designs are coming and all will be on display in the “Parade of Sail” at 10 the morning of July 25. Sailboats of all sizes and design will be proudly on display as they move through the inner harbor.

Led by Honorary Parade Marshal George McEvoy in the Nellie G II, the yachts will parade down the east side of the inner harbor, turn before the footbridge and proceed along the west side of the inner harbor. Parade announcer and regatta sponsor Audrey Hodgdon will provide informative commentary on the yachts, their names and heritage.

Audio presentation will be provided along with the ability to tune into Ch. 72 on your VHF radio.

Importantly, complete descriptions of each vessel will be available on a new website (www.BoothbayRegatta.com) that will present details on each yacht in the order of the parade participants.

Supported by sponsors from the local maritime industry and other local businesses, this year’s regatta is sure to generate strong community interest.

Watch the Parade of Sail and experience the beauty of sail.
