The Downtown Sailing Center's annual Ya Gotta Regatta supports our accessible and community based programs. This year’s event will feature four exciting fleets: an adaptive Sonar fleet, a one-design J/22 fleet (with spinnakers), a Hansa fleet, and a PHRF pursuit race.
Use this page to register for the J/22, Hansa, and PHRF fleets.
Hansa sailors: If you're a member of the Hansa Race Team or are interested in racing in the Hansa fleet, please contact info@downtownsailing.org to request your registration code.
Adaptive sailors: To register for the adaptive Sonar fleet, please email James Lee, Director of Community Programs, at james@downtownsailing.org.
In addition to registering your team for the race here, all teams are expected to set up a fundraising team. The suggested fundraising goal is $100 per foot minimum (or $2200 for each J/22) . See the YGR Campaign Page for details and to Create a Team.
Eligibility
Priority will be given to DSC Skipper members, but non-members may be eligible to register if space allows. Non-members who are interested in participating in our One Design/J22 Class will need to successfully pass a DSC Skipper Checkout prior to the event, and complete all required paperwork. If you are not a DSC Skipper Level Member, email ygr@downtownsailing.org for information about registering.
Boats will be randomly assigned at registration on the day of the event.
