Diamond Island Regatta

Last year’s Diamond Island Regatta drew 30 boats into beautiful Lake Champlain. Hosted by the Royal Savage Yacht Club and Point Bay Marina to benefit the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum, this aquatic adventure kicks off with a prerace breakfast and a skipper’s meeting. Vessels with Lake Champlain Performance Handicap Racing Fleet ratings then cut across the water, vying for trophies in various classes. Later, sailors and members of the public indulge in the buffet-style Taste of the Islands Dinner, featuring a choice of island spiced pork shoulder or Jamaican mahi in curry sauce, and toast to winners in the awards ceremony.
