Invitation to visit New York City and sail in regatta


We would like to invite you to come visit New York City and also sail in a regatta in front of the Statue of Liberty.

Greetings from the Manhattan Sailing Club in New York City.



Our club is hosting the Third Dennis Conner International Yacht Club Challenge from August 19-22, 2009.

This is a gathering of yacht clubs from around the world. The purpose of the regatta is to promote international goodwill through friendly competition. It is an event for amateur club sailors as well as their family and friends. The competition will be held on J/24 sailboats supplied by our club.

Each country can be represented by one club. We are trying to find suitable clubs to invite from your country.

Can you please help by suggesting the name of a yacht club and possibly give us their website or contact information? If you are interested could you please let us know who to contact at your club?

The Commodore of our sailing club will then extend a formal invitation.

Thank you very much for your assistance and best wishes.
