STAR WARS REGATTA
The Best on the Bay

The annual CBYRA Star Wars regatta hosted by Eastport Yacht Club is coming up on Saturday, 09 April 2011.  Star Wars is a way to truly prove who is the best on the Bay as all top 2010 High Point winners compete in a round robin series sailed in J/80s.  North Point Yacht Sales will host the after race party. 

 

The Notice of Race is posted at race.eastportyc.org and if you were first in your class then don't forget to sign up or get the next skipper to represent your fleet.
