Santanarama & Shields Regatta

The Santanarama began in 1966 and features the 22’ Santana. SYC owns three of these sloops for members use. The regatta includes three races using the main and jib sails and an open race where spinnakers are used. In recent years the participants have been treated to on-the-water refreshments and challenging games in addition to the racing competition.

Joining the Santana 22's will be the sleek 30 foot Shields class, returning to Carmel Bay after a 20 year hiatus. The Shields will be competing for the Jon Konigshofer trophy, honoring our charter member and 1955 Commodore. The graceful sloops sport colorful spinnakers and race with a crew of 4 or 5.
