Welcome to the 2024 Solstice Race Information page.

The Solstice Race was begun in the late 1990’s as the Rockland Yacht Club has held an annual race Aptly named the Solstice Race, this event is held around government marks in West Penobscot Bay. Racers can look forward to friendly, spirited competition, and a chance to knock the rust from sailing skills and reflexes dulled by our long Maine winters. Throw in a post-race BBQ and potluck at the Rockland Club house, with trophies awarded to one design, spinnaker, and cruising divisions. This is the reward for those who get their boats in early and come out to mix it up!
