Hampton Beach Catamaran Regatta
June 16 - 17, 2012
Hampton Beach Catamaran Regatta has become a highlight of the summer as champions and (relatively) new sailors alike converge on Hampton Beach for a weekend of sailing. The weekend is well organized, with races throughout the day, and held close to the shores so that visitors and non-sailors can admire the spectacle. If you want to sail you need to get in contact with the organizers through the details provided here. If you're just watching, simply get yourself a good bit of sand a camera and relax and enjoy the proceedings.
