AAA Info To Go
Celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Marblehead-to-Halifax Ocean Race.
Gloucester July 4-5 (open house)
Marblehead July 7-10 (race)

The Marblehead-to-Halifax Ocean Race began in 1905 as an informal competition among sailors from the Boston, Eastern and New York Yacht Clubs. It was run sporadically until 1939, when the Boston Yacht Club joined with the Royal Nova Scotia Yacht Squadron to formalize a biennial event. Since then, the race has become one of the preeminent ocean races of the North Atlantic. This year, the Bluenose II will participate in the pre-race festivities.
