2020 Flip Flop Regatta
Welcome to the 2020 Flip Flop Regatta Information page.

The 2020 Flip Flop Regatta is ON!!!! FFR is one of the largest NE regattas of the year - a pursuit race starting in Broad Sound, around the Outer Islands and back to the finish in Boston Harbor. Per updated Mass. COVID-19 Guidelines, fully crewed racing for a single event is now permitted, but masks should be worn when unable to keep a minimum safe distance of 6'. 

Due to COVID-19, we will not be having a post race party this year, but will have an online awards ceremony - stay tuned.

All proceeds support Courageous Sailing's youth programs and further our mission of transforming children's lives through sailing programs that inspire learning, personal growth, and leadership.

If your boat is racing, becoming a Skipper Sponsor is a great way to help Courageous by potentially doubling your contribution! If your employer has a matching gift program for qualified 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations, submit the receipt from your Sponsorship along with the completed sponsorship form (download from the information page) to your company. Details are on the entry page on Regattaman. 

If you are unable to race but you or your crew would still like to donate to Courageous, click here:

https://courageoussailing.org/annual-giving-2019/ 

Your donation will have a huge impact and help Courageous be there for the kids who need our programs more than ever in these difficult times.

Thanks for your continued support, and hope to see you on the race course August 8th.

 
Best Regards,
