Amethyst Harbour, Thunder Bay, Lake Superior, Ontario, Canada.
Sat, Aug 17, 2024 at 8:00 AM
Amethyst Harbour, 20 miles east of Thunder Bay, on Lake Superior, is a pretty nice introduction to Lake Superior sailing. Thunder Bay, Lake Superior, is a “small” 20 mile wide bay on 350 mile long Lake Superior. What a setting for a sailing weekend. The races are around local islands with Saturday‘s two races around closer islands and Sunday‘s single race around Caribou Island. All are stunning and Caribou‘s cliff‘s add real drama to the race. Saturday evening the Bailey‘s host a BBQ and make sure the sauna’s really hot of all the Finnish wanna be‘s.
It‘s most certainly serious racing for the Crystal Trophy, sailed yearly for almost a century now, but any Lightnings that are not so serious are really welcome for wonderful sailing. We‘d be glad to billet those from out of town and we‘d love to have you join us.
Squam Lakes Association, Squam Lake
All are welcome to beautiful Squam Lake in Holderness, NH. See
recently-adopted qualification exceptions (in addition to normal ILCA qualifications) for NE WJM.

Premier East Coast fall regatta with great sailing, off water events and camaraderie
Wonderful sailing venue. It‘s easy to put it in, a short distance out to the race course, competent race committee, & a fun après sailing party.
The crown jewel of the autumn racing circuit. Great racing, legendary hospitality, local housing for all, plus lots of boats! Once referred to by Bill Faude as the finest fall regatta in which you will ever sail. Come see why it remains one of the ILCA most enduring regattas. Thirty-four boats in 2023.
