Ahoy Women of the Chesapeake and Herring Bay!
It's time to make plans for the 2016 HHSA Women's Regatta!
The Regatta is an opportunity for women to learn, sail, and compete one-on-one on the Bay's best racing grounds – Herring Bay. The Regatta is open to both HHSA members and non-members, sailing on keel boats with all female crews. It's a series of up to three races on a variety of courses that will utilize government marks, HHSA racing marks, and drop marks. The goal of the Regatta is to provide women a competitive regatta with an emphasis on fun. We hope to make this the premier women's regatta on the Chesapeake.
Many of our members have participated in the past and had a wonderful time. If you haven't been involved before, please join us this year, as crew or as skipper of your own boat.
Six HHSA boats participated last year:
GITANA, skippered by Alli Bell
JUBILEE, skippered by Emily Manders
JULEP, skippered by Cathy Freel
LIBERTY PREVAILS, skippered by Eunice Lin
WHOOSH, skippered by Andrea Heintzelman (for Bev Wright)
