Patos Island Race

Apr 26, 2016

Hosted by the Sidney North Sannich Yacht Club the 35th running of The Patos Island Race is in the books.

The Patos Island Long Course is a Van Isle360 qualifier and it is part of the Vancouver Island Race Series.

Congratulations to all those who managed to overcome the light air at Patos on the weekend of April 9th. From various first hand reports and looking at the tracker it was no doubt an exercise in patience and concentration.
