2011 Marion to Bermuda Cruising Yacht Race"Turn Your Sailing Dreams into a Lifetime of Memories" The 18th biennial Marion-Bermuda Cruising Yacht race gets underway on Buzzard's Bay June 17, 2011! The race provides an opportunity for cruising yachts and amateur crews to participate in an ocean race and a rendezvous in Bermuda. Since its inception in 1977, the spirit of the 645 mile Marion Bermuda Race is that all yachts and crew are participating for the joy and pleasure of sailing, competition and the camaraderie that accompanies such an offshore event. The race will start in Buzzards Bay off Marion, Massachusetts and finish off St. David’s Head, Bermuda. It encourages the development of blue water sailing skills on seaworthy yachts that can be handled safely offshore with limited crew. Amongst its activities, the Marion Bermuda Cruising Yacht Race Association, Inc. (MBCYRA) is a 501c(3) organization donates race proceeds to support Youth Sailing Programs.

The event is hosted by the Blue Water Sailing Club. The Symposium informational flyer and registration form will be available closer to the event and from the Marion to Bermuda race website.
