Racing happens all over Lake Champlain. Don't let inexperience stop you! If you want to learn how to race, contact one of the race organizers below, they will be glad to give you a hand.

There are midweek evening races, weekend races, marathons, one design races, dinghy races, handicap races, junior races and collegiant racing. During the winter there is ice boat racing... something for everybody at every level.

Keep in mind that you don't need to own a boat to enjoy racing. Crew is always in demand.
