Good Old Boat Regatta - A chance for boats "of a certain age" to shine on the race course, with great shore parties.

    Map to the Party/Skippers meeting. 

Remember, parking is limited so competitors are urged to share rides.  Water taxi service is provided on a limited basis -- hours restricted this year (approximately 8-9:30 am, 4-6 and 8-10 pm). 

If you want to anchor overnight at the GOBR shore site, feel free to do so.  It is a well protected creek area.  Crew people can come to marina to get on anchored boats.  Yachts cruising in for the regatta are encouraged to bring their own dink, which they can leave on their anchor while racing, or on shore.    Anchorage is verrry close to the party site (like a couple hundred feet).  Good swimmers may not need their dink.

Hospice Cup - Our popular race is the centerpiece for this huge charity fundraiser (and party).

Hospice Cup -- America's largest charity regatta -- is a cooperative effort of Shearwater SC, the Storm Trysail Club, Annapolis Corinthians, the committees of Hospice Cup, Inc. (HCI), and area hospices. A year of fund-raising by the hospices, and planning by HCI, is capped by donors being treated to a day on the Bay watching the exciting race and enjoying a great post-race awards party.

It's a race!

  The race fleets are divided into two groups, with courses provided by Shearwater Sailing Club and The Storm Trysail Club. 

   In addition to the usual CBYRA sanctioned handicap and one-design classes, there is also an informal, non-spin race for those who would prefer a more laid-back style of sailboat competition, run by the Annapolis Corinthians.  Called the Hospice class, entries are due earlier.  See the NOR link below for information.  Email Shearwater if you have questions.

Race Entry:

    NOR is available HERE, or in the Greenbook, or on the CBYRA web site.

SSC Twilight Race - Extremely popular summer evening race.

Shearwater's Twilight Race brings out large numbers of boats big and small to enjoy the usually fine evening breezes of early summer. A course is set around government marks (lighted, of course, after dark) with finishing up the Severn River close to Annapolis just around twilight time if the wind gods permit!
