MAP  Directions 

Get ready for the Sudden Valley Regatta.  This site is great for sailing and swimming.  No need for heavy gear or bundling up.  By July this valley is filled with hot thermals and the lake has warmed up. Between the races, or after a day of sailing, jump off the hull and cool down.  Wear a T-shirt, shorts, and harness while running the course. This is what summer sailing is all about.

The regatta site has a great washroom and changing facility. The water front transitions from grass to water -no rocks or dragging the boat over sand.  Lots of area to park your trailers and rig the boats with other Hobie sailors. There is no tent camping in the park area but two campgrounds are close by. A gas station and coffee shop is located at the park entrance and usually suffices for a muffin and black brew.  For Hotels, stay tuned and we will have more.  Dinner is served by the hosting fleet -so you only need lunch and breakfast.

Expect over thirty Hobies comprised of youth Waves, 16s, 17s, 18s, and Tigers at this event.  Participants at this event come from Seattle, Vancouver, Washington State, and Oregan. Class racing is H16, H17, H18, Tiger and Wave.

If Vancouver Hobie sailors of any club want to get to this event, contact Mark Jones at (604)983-2319 and we will try to get your Hobie to this event.
