  Registration fee includes 2 free dinner tickets, 1 skipper's bag, and 2 free t-shirts.

  Join us for an October tradition on Willoughby Bay... the Memorial Race.  Racing is for non-spinnaker, single headsail.  This is a staggered-start, pursuit-style race with handicaps taken into consideration at the start.  Each boat will have its own starting time.  There will be a post-race party (approx. 3:30pm) with refreshments at the Rebel Marina Breezeway Cafe.  Race awards will be handed out at the Willoughby End-of-Season Party following the Hot-Buttered Rum Race in November.   Entry fee is FREE for BBSA Members (dues paid).  All others - $10
