Please join us at the end of Balboa Pier to see the start and finish of the first ever, "Great Brigantine Race". There's no charge and there is plenty of public parking. The brigantines are identical, built on site at the Los Angeles Maritime Institute and named after Irving Johnson and his wife & world sailing companion, Exy Johnson.
This year the American Legion Yacht Club will host the race with Bahia Corinthian Yacht Club challenging Balboa Yacht Club.
Both Bahia Corinthian Yacht Club and Balboa Yacht Club have made significant donations to the Los Angeles Maritime Institute's program for disadvantaged youth and you can too--donations are fully tax deductable.
There will be a designated spectator fleet area, with one of our American Legion boats marking the best place to see the race.
Check out the brigantines and LAMI on our links page.
