This year we are once again joining the Boyne City Yacht Club and will be racing in their Mark Madness Regatta. This will be held on Lake Charlevoix near Boyne City. Lake Charlevoix is one of the most beautiful sailing sites in Michigan.  We will be racing in the bay near Boyne City. You can launch off the beach in Boyne City or at Young State Park. Camping is available at Young State Park. This park fills quickly, so make reservations now. Boyne City is also allowing camping in the parking lot near the police department where some sailors have camped in the past. You must stay on the pavement, and there is no electricity or water available.

LOCATION:  Sailing will be on Lake Charlevoix in the bay near Boyne City. Camping is available at Young State Park which is about 3 miles north of Boyne City along the east side of Lake Charlevoix. You can launch from the park (Terrace campground).  Click here for a map.  If staying at Young, most sailors camp in the Terrace campground (near the boat launch). Boyne City is also allowing camping in the parking lot near the police department where some sailors have camped in the past. You must stay on the pavement, and there is no electricity or water available. The location is defined on the map linked below. You must fill out the linked form and return it to the Boyne City YC no later than June 3, 2011.
