The Lady Liberty Regatta brings together some of the top women sailors in the country for a competition near the Statue of Liberty.

This regatta is organized by the New York Harbor Sailing Foundation and run approximately every 2 years.

The event is sponsored by Conde Nast Publications and raced on identical J/24 sailboats provided by the Manhattan Sailing Club.

The idea behind the Lady Liberty Regatta is to help build friendships and develop communication among a wide range of women sailors from all over the country.  Since we provide the boats, all sailors need to do is show up. 

We hope this encourages West Coast, Southern and Mid-Western sailors to come come race against women from the East Coast.  We also hope this encourages women sailors from different classes to race against and meet each other.

The Sixth Lady Liberty Regatta will be June 2 & 3, 2007. 

We invite you to participate!  Read the Notice of Race.  Then complete an Expression of Interest form.
