    The 2024 Cape Henry Cup will be held on Saturday May 18, 2024, with a 0930 scheduled first start. This is a long-distance race in the lower Chesapeake Bay. The race officers select from multiple course options prior to the race depending on the weather. The race course length may be over 20 nautical miles for the faster divisions.

    This is Race #2 of the Southern Bay Distance Racing Series (SBDRS).

    Entry fee is WAIVED for all BBSA members!

    New for 2024, the Broad Bay Sailing Association is teaming with Hampton Yacht Club to include The Cape Henry Cup into the 2024 Hampton Roads Hospice Regatta, in support of the Dozorets Hospice House of Hampton Roads.

    Information about the Hospice House can be found at: https://www.hospicehousehr.org/

    Donations to the Dozorets Hospice House and optional tickets to a post-race social at Hampton Yacht Club can be found at: https://theclubspot.com/shop/regatta/QicRLbIWyE

    The Cape Henry Cup Race was established in 1974. As one of the most popular races on the southern Chesapeake, the course originally passed out through the Maryland Channel opening of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel and returning through the Thimble Shoal Channel opening. Now we maintain the distance, but usually do not go through the openings.

    If you are interested, please reach out Eric Brinsfield, 2024 LWMCCC Chair, or to any committee member to ask questions.  Please register your interest here.  Click on the Register button and you can specify what types of help you can offer.  

    During registration, you will see these questions:  

    • Volunteer pool: If you are willing to be contacted throughout the year for short tasks, select Yes to be added to the volunteer pool.  
    • Specific tasks:  Select all that you might be willing to do.  These are volunteer jobs for specific events, dates, and times.  
    • Future committee positions:  If you are willing to be part of the planning committee next year, we can start your training now.  You can shadow the current committee members.  Job descriptions are available on the CCC Volunteers page.
