What is the Cascadia Cup? If you’re racing the Swiftsure you need to know about the Cascadia Cup because competing in the Swiftsure is already half of what you need to win the Trophy!
The Cascadia Cup is a trophy given to the yacht with the lowest combined corrected time in both the Pacific NW Offshore, The Swiftsure Lightship Classic and the Cape Flattery Races (PHRF NW). Want to win it? Corinthian Yacht Club (CYC) of Portland, Oregon, invites you to race for the 2020 title by signing up for the Pacific NW Offshore, sponsored by Schooner Creek Boat Works,at www.cycportland.org. You’ll automatically be entered into the running. The first winner of the trophy for 2019 was Rage. Trophy presentation will be at the 2020 Swiftsure. Hope to see you there.
So, start your planning now for 2020. Make it a clean sweep of the two best and most important yacht races in the Pacific Northwest. Hope to see you in Ilwaco, WA our new host city, and on the starting line at Buoy 2 off the mouth of the Columbia River on May 7, 2020.
