(September 4, 2009) On Friday, September 4th, 78 entrants will start the 75th Vineyard Race. Hosted by Stamford Yacht Club, the 238-mile race is a classic American yachting event stretching from Shippan Point, through the swirling currents of the Race or Plum Gut, past Block Island, and on to the light tower at the entrance to Buzzard's Bay, to return leaving Block Island to starboard en route to the finish in Stamford Harbor.
On the diamond anniversary of the event, several videos have been produced to provide historical perspective, plus all the social media tools are available to help follow the race once it starts. Enjoy!
