Lakeshore Raft party brings back the regatta of old

Raft Party

Mar 28, 2019

The LSYC Raft Party Race is happening on June 29th, 2019! This will be the ultimate resurgence of partying and sailing in the Lake Ontario racing scene. Partnered with Parker Media Management, we wanted to get back to the roots of a great regatta; which emphasizes great racing, an awesome party and growing comradery. Our back to basics approach was inspired by the legendary Levels Regattas; which included tough competition, cheap drinks, rocking music and good times.

With the help of our amazing sponsors we have the opportunity to elevate our event without passing on the costs to our competitors. At only $75 Early Registration Participants will enjoy an afternoon of offshore racing followed by the Official Raft Party! Our Boss Supplements swag bag is packed with over $200 of freebies including a custom Raft Party Race Fast Mask UV Face Shield for the ENTIRE CREW! Sailors can register on YachtScoring – Not a Racer? No Problem! We have a Cruising Division geared up for those who just want to have some laid-back fun! One Design Fleets are welcome as well – reach out if you want to make the party of the season. All classes with 5+ boats will be scored One Design!

Come back and raft up for the evening at LSYC and take advantage of our Canada Day Long Weekend Party on Saturday night! Beaches Beer, Viritus Vodka and our favorite rum will keep us refreshed all night long while busting a move to FiddleStix and DJ On Top from Sound Collective!

Raft Party

Hungry? No problem! We’ve got Chrome on the Range Food truck there all night to keep you fueled, along with our FREE late-night pizza! At the end of the day we just want to keep the party going for racers of all ages, while making sure the younger crowd is represented. Expect good music, laser lights, giveaways, pro bartenders, flip cup, and premium drinks.

The Best Regatta Party you’ve been to in a long time – that you hopefully remember!

Sailing into the Future at Antigua Sailing Week

By Mathew Channer

“Standby tack,” Canadian sailor Katy Campbell orders. The crew scrambles over the sheet lines and braces on the deck.

“Three, two, one, tack!”

I wait until the bow turns into the wind and the headsail snaps over, then crawl over the cabin top of Panacea X to the now windward side. The trim team smoothly sheets on the headsail and a competitor vessel shoots past our stern, feet away, as our Solana 45 beats eastward along Antigua’s south coast.
