Come One, Come All!! The weekend of July 18-20 has been set for
this year's Vineyard Cup Regatta on the waters of Vineyard and
Nantucket Sounds. The Vineyard Cup presented by Vineyard Vines
and hosted by Men’s Journal will be managed by Sail MV,
an Island organization dedicated to preserving and promoting Martha's
Vineyard's seafaring traditions and offering free sailing instruction
for the Island's youth (over 300 kids this summer).
The weekend will start on Friday with an exciting Opening Ceremonies
featuring music, food, drink and good times! Based on the success
of last year's event, The Vineyard Cup Regatta is emerging as
a premier venue in the Northeast’s summer racing scene and
is expected to attract many of the area’s most competitive
racers.
There will racing for boats entered in IRC, One Design, PHRF and
Cruising Canvas Divisions. Racing will be on both Saturday, July
19, and Sunday, July 20 with first, second, and third prizes awarded
in each Division. The “coveted” Bronze Lobster Trophy
will also be awarded to the team with the lowest combined corrected
times.
Also a part of this weekend regatta will be the East Coast Junior
Windsurfing Championship, the Vineyard Cup Six Oar with Cox Gig
Race Championships, and events held in Menemsha Pond for Herreshof
12’s, Sunfish and the Railton Handicap Division. Further
