Saturday 10 August 2019 WHITBY REGATTA – NOT TO BE MISSED

The Whitby Regatta is probably the oldest sea Regatta on the North East coast in England and has drawn large crowds into Whitby over the years. It started in a very small way with the fishermen competing against each other in their fishing smacks and salmon cobbles. Then came the yachts. It was recorded in 1847 "The Whitby Challenge Cup", promoted by the Royal Yorkshire Yacht Club, was won by the Schooner "Whiled", and a prize of 50 guineas was presented to the captain or owner. Between that date and up to the nineteen thirties, yacht racing formed the greater part of the Regatta. Whitby is always a treat at any time of the year, but the Regatta makes it extra special. Fancy joining us for up to 6 hours ?
