Invitational Regattas: 
Each fleet has its own District-level Invitational regattas, hosted by various clubs on the East Coast. It is not 
unusual to see crews that have traveled from several states away to compete in these events. It’s like a series of 
family reunions – you see old friends from around the region in new venues that are always great places to visit. 
You can compete with the top sailors in your class. But a word of caution…these regattas can be humbling. 
And yet, you will find that these very top sailors are the ones who are often most eager to share their tips for 
winning. So, the competition is the highest level that most of us see, and the venues are always fun places to 
visit. 

You will have to invest at least a full weekend to compete in most of these regattas, sometimes with travel days 
on each end. But you will find that there is no better opportunity to learn first hand from the best sailors 
around, and share a great weekend with friends both from your own fleet and those from far away.
