It was second of 2 Trials Regattas for Canada Summer Games. The Race Committees did a great job running races for ILCA 7,6,4’s 29ers, 420’s and Optis.

 

Following a one year postponement due to COVID-19, the Canada Summer Games are now taking place in August 2022. The Sailing competition will be held at Niagara on the Lake Sailing Club, August 14th – 21st 2022.

 

Fun Fact: With the exception of the 1973 Canada Games, sailing has been featured on every Canada Summer Games sport program since the inaugural Summer Games in 1969.
