Sailors, Parents, and Siblings can add just what you want one item at a time. You can navigate to the cart from any page by clicking the cart icon in the red bar above the header. After you’ve completed your registration order, a secure registration form will be sent to you for each of your racing sailors. All registration proceeds benefit the Hatteras Community Sailing organization. We are focused on inspiring our local you to lifelong independence, seamanship, and respect for nature.

All registration and regatta items are discounted by 30% for early registration. Early registration ends at midnight May 10th, 2023. Online registration will close at midnight on June 6th, 2023. There will be no on-site registration. ** Tickets and registrations are non-refundable.

Racing Bundles

For each class, we offer a racing bundle for competitors. The bundle is a savings from ordering everything separately.

Your family members can add onto your bundle a la carte for an other meals, activities, etc. Double handed boats register separately and we will ask your partner’s name on the longform registration which comes after you purchase your tickets. Entrants are not required to buy a bundle or participate in all the extra fun.
