Sail Newport Quahog Cup Virtual Regatta @ Home at Computer

Join us for Inaugural Quahog Cup Virtual Regatta for the Entire Family – Sunday, March 22, 9 A.M.
 
During the virus crisis, we're joining forces with sailonline.org to hold a purely entertaining virtual regatta series starting on Sunday, March 22 at 9 a.m.
 
There's no registration fee, no entry fee, no one will get a sunburn, and there will be no need to leave your house. Race with fellow sailors as we weather this challenging time together.  
 
This series of races will be held until we can all get back on the water. The first race on Sunday will be a race around Narragansett Bay using one design Farr 30s (made in Rhody by the way!).
