For many Rhode Island sailors, Labor Day Weekend is the “Grand Finale” for the region’s racing season, hosting a plethora of fun activities on Narragansett Bay, and on September 6, 2015 the annual  Conanicut Yacht Club Around the Island Race  will mark its 88th year as one of the holiday’s hallmark events. Held out of Jamestown, the 19 nautical-mile circumnavigation of Conanicut Island is a tradition among many and welcomes competitors racing mono hull sailboats over 22 feet in length that are rated for PHRF-NB.
