Only a few more sleeps until Sail Nova Scotia hosts one of the most popular regattas of the year, the Boxing Rock Cup, formerly the Harbour Race.

With Bermuda starts at both RNSYS and BBYC, the Boxing Rock Cup will attract close to 50 boats and more than 250 sailors. The race is the largest fundraiser for the Nova Scotia Sailing Team. The finish line will be just off Bishop’s Landing which will also be the site of the raft-up after party.
