202012 Downeast Regatta - September 8th & 9th -
Falmouth, Maine
www.j24downeastregatta.com
Dear Tim,
Is the J24 Downeast Regatta hosted by Fleet 43
in Casco Bay, Maine "Bucket List Worthy"?
Recently at another J24 event on the Eastcoast
one of our "Downeast Drones" heard a fellow J24 sailor say that the Downeast
Regatta was on his "Bucket List" which made us think, what makes the J24
Downeast Regatta "Bucket List Worthy"?
Could it be the epic Maine Lobster Bake or the
average of 6+ races or the consistent wind and flat water? Nahhh it must be
the party!
Anyways, why don't you tell us and the world
why the Downeast Regatta is "Bucket List Worthy" by joining the discussion
on Facebook and see what some other people are saying about the Downeast
Regatta.

TOP 8 REASONS TO COME DOWNEAST!
Again here are some of the highlights of this
epic event:
1. Free housing to all away boats (we didn't
turn anyone away last year that asked for it - so make sure you ask, if you
want it!)
2. Best Competition in the Northeast - top
boats in the nation come to compete in this great event with an average of
28 boats over the last eight years. 3 out of the top 4 boats at the 2010
National Championships have extensive experience sailing in Casco Bay (the
body of water for the Downeast Regatta)
3. Best Sailing Conditions in the Northeast -
1 1/4 mile legs in flat water with great fall sea breezes or fun backside
frontal winds. Average of over 6 races each year since 2003. Expert race
management by regional race officers.
4. Best Party in the Northeast - Full Maine
Lobster Bake with clams, potatoes, corn, local micro-brew beer, spirits,
live music, dancing and much more - all included in the entry fee for the
skipper and crew!
5. Easy to get to - just minutes off I-95 near
Portland Maine and 1 hour and 45 minutes from Boston
6. Great Value - Low all inclusive entry fee
that covers, free beer and spirits all weekend, massive chilli and appetizer
feast on Friday evening during check-in, Lobster Bake for skipper and crew,
launch and haul, boat and trailer storage during event, burger and dog feast
on Sunday during awards and haul-out, and an excellent breakfast buffet
Saturday and Sunday mornings.
7. Experience Portland Maine night-life - J24
Fleet 43 members are your guide to the "Old Port" and the night life scene
in Portland. If you have the energy we will show you a great time after the
official party has ended - "after hours, anyone?"
8. Third largest J24 event in North America -
The Downeast Regatta had 42 boats attend in 2011 from all over the US and
Canada and as far away as Florida, Wisconsin and Halifax, Nova Scotia
Canada.
If you need any other reason to come to the
2012 Downeast Regatta just ask a past participant why they keep coming back
and why this is a must attend event on the J24 circuit.
