This weekend, October 12-13, the Intercollegiate Offshore Regatta (IOR) will take place at Larchmont Yacht Club, co-hosted by Storm Trysail Club.

The event will see 41 schools from 19 U.S. states and 3 Canadian provinces come together for a unique offshore sailing experience, designed to give collegiate sailors a new challenge beyond their typical dinghy racing.

This year's regatta features 43 boats and 313 sailors, supported by 90 volunteers who will serve in roles from Race Committee to Safety Officers on the donated boats. The event, organized by the Storm Trysail Foundation and powered by generous donations from club members, sponsors, and partners, remains free for all student competitors.

To see who is attending, which boats are racing, photos from last year, and messages from the Race Committee and our Sponsors.
