Outside Line Races

The outside line consists of veteran sailors competing in C420s, Hustlers, Stars, Thunderbirds and more. Many of these sailors sailed the inside line as children.

Eight Yacht Clubs Strong

Eight South Shore yacht clubs make up the Quincy Bay Race Week Association. Each Club is represented by their Commodores and delegates. Braintree, Metropolitan, Quincy, South Shore, Squantum, Town River, Wessagussett and Wollaston Yacht Clubs make up Quincy Bay Race Week Association.

Junior and Senior Functions

The Junior Social is a great way for the Junior Members from the 8 yacht clubs to spend time together socializing making race day that much more fun!

The Senior Members and Yacht Club Officers host Rendezvous Night each year to raise money for Quincy Bay Race Week, but mostly to get together and have fun!
