The Eggemoggin Reach Regatta – Saturday, August 5, 2017

One of the biggest turnouts on the classic yacht circuit and hats off to Brooklin Boatyard, Rockport Marine for their continued support, and WoodenBoat Publications for the generous use of their grounds for this special not to be missed event.

The Eggemoggin Reach Regatta began humbly in 1985 with thirteen wooden boats and a dream. Organizer Steve White along with Frank Hull of Brooklin Boatyard first envisioned the race as an opportunity for wooden boat owners to get to together and enjoy each others company as well as to compete. The race quickly grew to 125 boats and is now co-hosted by Brooklin Boatyard and Rockport Marine.. The Regatta’s 15-mile course has remained the same over the years and only once was the race cancelled due to fog. (The party still happened though!) The Camden Feeder Regatta and the Castine Classic Yacht Race soon joined the ERR to create a truly spectacular three-day event.

Please note: The Brooklin General Store is now open!
