After a two year hiatus, the 39th annual Classic Mariner’s Regatta is back! The regatta will be held on June 4th and 5th, 2022 in Port Townsend with racing on Port Townsend Bay. This two day, weekend event is organized by the Port Townsend Sailing Association.

For the first time ever the Classic Mariner’s Regatta is open to sailboats of all designs and materials. All sailboats are welcome!

Races will be run according to the US Sailing Rules of Racing, with separate starts for PHRF, one-design, cruising, and in-shore boats. Classes will be determined after registration. If boats don’t have an official PHRF rating, a provisional rating will be assigned by the race committee.

Sailing Instructions will be available before the race.

The entry fee is $30 per vessel until Wednesday, May 25^th.  After that the fee will be $40.  Payment and registration, including basic vessel measurements needed for a provisional rating can be made via the CMR Regatta Network site (click button that says “Register Here”).
