Join the Evolution
The Women’s Regatta is evolving! We have a major sponsor with Evolution Sails and we’re excited to grow the event with them. We’re on a path of empowering women racing crews (down to a maximum of 20% men on board); after all it’s a women’s regatta. There will be a drive for newcomers to the sport to get on crews with a vision that this event will become 100% women crews.
Sign up today and be part of the Evolution.
