The Great Harbor Yacht Club on Nantucket is proud to announce the inaugural Nantucket J/70 Summer Open Regatta to take place from June 17th to 19th, 2022. So far, the seven-boat strong Nantucket fleet are all registered. Invite your friends from across New England and join them for some fun & frolic in the sun in the historic town of Nantucket.

Consider this, J/70 fleets in Marblehead, Edgartown, Newport, Sag Harbor, American YC, are all within 2 hours drive of a ferry boat to Nantucket. And, since it's early in the summer season, there's plenty of openings to get across with boat and trailer.

Better yet?? Come sail Nantucket one weekend, then head over to Edgartown YC to sail more J/70 one-design racing in the Edgartown Race Weekend! A double-header on these two island "playgrounds" and historical paradises?? Amazing...perhaps a new bucket-list duo and truly an escape from the "status quo"!
