The Marion Bermuda Race and Harraseeket Yacht Club are thrilled to announce a cruising yacht rally from Maine to Marion in advance of the 2015 Marion to Bermuda race. Called the M2M2B, the rally will be an enjoyable and convenient way for Maine-based yacht skippers to sail from Maine to Marion, MA as they stage their boats for the 2015 Marion-Bermuda race.
The M2M2B will begin with a welcome reception and dinner on Sunday June 14, 2015 at the Harraseeket Yacht Club in South Freeport, Maine on the shores of Casco Bay.
Tim Sample, Maine's most beloved humorist, is scheduled to provide entertainment for the evening. Yachts will depart South Freeport on Monday June 15 and will passage overnight to the Cape Cod Canal and on to Marion, MA.
Yachts participating in the M2M2B will receive special recognition at the Beverly Yacht Club in Marion, MA at the Marion-Bermuda Race welcome reception on June 18. A trophy will be awarded to the first yacht to complete the rally course on corrected time.
'The 2015 M2M2B is a new event that will excite and attract Maine-based sailors interested in the Marion-Bermuda Race' said David Patton, Chairman of the Trustees of the Marion-Bermuda Race.
'It will be a fun and social way to move their boats to Marion for the start of the 2015 race to beautiful Bermuda.'
We hope to see you there! Event website
