71st Annual Mount Dora Yacht Club Sailboat Regatta

Description

Mount Dora welcomes sailors from all over the state to the MDYC's 71st Annual Regatta on Saturday and Sunday, March 23rd – 24th 2024. The races begin around noon on Sat and 9:30am on Sun near the lighthouse at Graham Pointe. Watching the beautiful masts move across Lake Dora is a sight you won’t want to miss. With three courses and almost 100 sailors and some good weather, it hopes to be a breathtaking sight for participants and spectators alike all over Lake Dora.

The Mount Dora Yacht Club comes together with almost all of its members volunteering to serve in some way at this weekend long event each year. For 2024 they are proud to have Advent Health as the presenting sponsor. In addition, another 50+ sponsors give to make this a true sailor’s delight. Coming from all over the state, the sailors’ ages range from 8-80. The committee has met their goal to enlist more junior sailors by providing scholarships and this year is a big success doing just that! Families in Florida have many opportunities to be active outdoors and being on the water is no exception.
