NYYC moves Annual Regatta to October
The New York Yacht Club’s 166th Annual Regatta, postponed in August because of COVID-19, will be held Oct. 2-4. The regatta now will include the Melges IC37 National Championship, which was originally scheduled for those dates
The event will be the last of the summer season and will include some smaller one-design classes not traditionally invited to the Annual Regatta, specifically Sonars, Stars and Shields.
