2023 Previous Regattas
South Beach YC offers some of Northern California's finest year-round racing.
We hit the Bay's racing scene with style in 1989 with a
challenge for a Labor Day Weekend race that became our annual Jazz Cup.
Our racing has grown ever since.
There's nothing like finishing a race to the roar of the crowd
under bright stadium lights at a World Series winning SF Giants
home game on a Friday night. It's always a thrill when national TV
pans down to our finish line and catches our sails.
Today our racing calendar consists of our mid-winter
and summer race series, plus regional races,
and select regattas that we host and or provide race committee for.
You can find all of our active races on our Regattas page.
