Congratulations to our Commodore, Bill Robinson, on completing this year's Newport Bermuda Race! Commodore Bill was racing with our neighboring yacht club's Bill Gunther on "Blue Skies." Over the years, many ECYC members and vessels have participated in this incredible yachting event. We are proud to see Commodore Bill carrying on the tradition!
A race tracker is available at Yellow Brick Tracking - YBtracking.com to follow the rest of the fleet.
