GeneralInformation

It can be hot, but what better way to spend Labor Day than racing, followed by cooking out on the club's grills and taking a dip in the pool. This regatta usually features One-design and open Portsmouth classes on Saturday and Sunday. PHRF yachts generally race on Monday.

The 2012 Labor Day Regatta will be held on September 1st - 3rd. Please check back in August for more information.

This turned out to be a bit of a bust.  The wind was painfully light, and there was no Portsmouth fleet to sail against.   We sailed four "races" in our very own one-boat fleet and made the best of it, getting some good practice time in, and my family had a great time keeping cool at the club pool.
