Marblehead Race Week

Big Blue Sailing
The Friends worked with the Recreation Department and the High School to create a high school sailing team. The team uses the Club 420 racing boats that the Friends have donated to the Town. Big Blue Sailing competes with other local high schools in the Mass Bay League. Click on the link on the left for more information.

Thursday Night Racing
The Swampscott Yacht Club hosts Thursday Night Races during the summer. Captains are often looking for crew. This is an excellent opportunity for sailors to get some experience racing a bigger boat. Show up around 6pm to see if anyone needs crew. Also, each year the SYC participates in the King of Clubs Regatta in late July.
