Ironworks Revival Regatta- Host: Race Fleet (August 22, 2026)

The regatta will start in Boyne City and sailors will race to East Jordan. Boats and crews will navigate westwardly to Hemingway Point, through the Straits of Ironton while under sail, and down the South Arm toward the finish. The race will take place on August 22, 2026, and afterwards, we’ll get together in East Jordan for some food, beers and good time. Powerboats are welcome to join us after the race! If enough folks are interested, we will overnight in East Jordan and host a group breakfast in the morning. The club has arranged to hold slips with the East Jordan Harbormaster for this purpose. East Jordan Ironworks may have moved, but the BCYC’s signature race remains Boyne City to East Jordan! More information will be available closer to the event. BCYC membership is NOT required; this is meant to be a fun event for anyone interested and the club will provide you a PHRF rating for the event if needed.
