The Down the Bay Race is a 120 nautical mile distance race from Annapolis to Hampton. It is open to all monohull and multihull sailboats meeting the requirements.

Registration Open

If 3 CHESSS boats want a start, the organizing committee will support. Reach out to the CHESSS Commodore if interested - revolution4515@gmail.com. The A2B, which started in 1979, covers 753 miles, making it one of the longest ocean races on the east coast of the U.S. The challenging course combines inshore and offshore racing down the Chesapeake Bay, across the Gulfstream, and onto Bermuda. It enables sailors to fulfill a lifelong ambition of a blue water passage to an island known for its soft coral beaches, in an organized event promoting friendly competition with other boats.

Save the date, NOR to be posted later. Race starts late afternoon and finishes as the moon sets. Great post-race breakfast back at the PSA clubhouse.
