East Coast Docks 2018 Charlottetown Race Week celebrated 33 years of keel boat racing and has become a welcome tradition among many Atlantic Canada competitors. We had a busy week of racing with our PRHF Class and One Design Racing fleets, along with the excitement of hosting both the FARR 30 Canadian National Championship and the J70 Canadian Championship. The regatta rounded out shore activities and entertainment for competitors, spectators and families.

*More Than 140 Years
Harry Holman notes at his website that the Hillsboro Boating Club operated a popular Regatta at Charlottetown as far back as at least 1874. Like today, the 1874 Regatta attracted "fast boats from various towns and settlements on the coast". Back then they followed the rules of the Royal Halifax Yacht Club. A grand stand was erected at Connolly's Wharf for the public to watch the races. During a week of festivities, they held a public dance in the Drill Shed, a Grand Ball and a Concert.
