Event Details

First day of the model boating season at Spreckels Lake in Golden Gate Park. This event includes the Tony Marshall Ragtop/Stinkpot Relay Regatta, a friendly relay competition that cleverly includes skippers and boats from the Power Squadron (“stinkpots”) and Radio-Control Sail Squadron and Freesail Squadron (“ragtops”).

The regatta will begin about 1:00 PM on the north side of Spreckels Lake. There will also be casual running of remote-control model steam-powered boats as well as other (electric) power and sail boats.

Disclaimer: Please double check event information with the event organizer as events can be canceled, details can change after they are added to our calendar, and errors do occur.
