Around The Point Race - February 13
Now in its 5th year, the ATP Race loosely follows our DIYC series formula of starting and finishing at DIYC. The unique element is that (in normal years) it finishes on the “other” side of Tampa Bay at Saint Petersburg Yacht Club, a co-host of the event. Situated in a bustling arts community, St. Petersburg waterfront, the St. Petersburg Yacht Club has been a part of the sailing community for over 100 years. Just minutes away from South Tampa, the dockside award.celebration and party, sailors have the choice of heading home or staying on the boat for the night. Part of the DIYC BOTY Series. Limited breakfast menu will be available.
2021: Due to the obvious reason, this year the race will return to DIYC.

Hillsborough Bay Race - March 6
“Come Hell or high water” was the phrase used by our first regatta chair, Brian Malone. This distance race is held in Hillsborough Bay, but don’t assume it is just an afternoon cruise. Test your navigation skills and plan to race even if the weather pipes up. This time of year is prone to fronts. In the internet age, most race decisions are made at the bar watching radar. You can plan to race this one to hone your heavy weather skills, so don’t shy away if there is a blow. Part of the DIYC BOTY Series. Limited breakfast menu will be available.

Tampa Bay Hospice Cup - April 24
Similar to the traditions of the Morgan Invasion, the Tampa Bay Hospice Cup appeals to both cruisers and racers. In addition to the traditional Morgan Invasion fleets, the regatta also features open non-Morgan fleets for PHRF, Multi-hulls, and a “Just-for-Fun” casual fleet. The committee also plans landside activities for supporters who’d like to be a part of the event but who don’t care to race. All proceeds will benefit Tampa Bay area Hospice organizations, which offer comprehensive hospice and palliative care, caregiver education, individual and group counseling, spiritual support and many other programs to those it serves regardless of race, age, faith, diagnosis or financial circumstances. Part of the DIYC BOTY Series. Limited breakfast menu will be available.
