ABOUT THE EVENT
Proudly organized by the Storm Trysail Club Chesapeake Station

The Fall Regatta is a three-day format of mixed inshore buoy races and short coastal distance races to appeal to those who enjoy proving a variety of skill sets in big boat racing: the quick action of precision boathandling and tactics found in buoy racing combined with a focus on strategy, navigation and boat speed inherent to success in distance races. Mastering both sets of skills is important in all ORC championships, so the winning team of each class in this event will be crowned the 2020 ORC East Coast Champion for that class.
