We will have great open course racing in the outer Malletts Bay, the same course where the 2009 Lightning Worlds and the 2021 J24 Nationals were sailed. The Outer Bay is a nearly circular bay 4 1/2 miles wide, that is almost completely separated from Lake Champlain by an auto causeway to the north, and a railroad fill to the west. With an average water depth of 70 feet, this configuration provides an excellent body of water for racing with "wind appropriate" wave heights and minimal powerboat traffic. It will take 35 minutes to 1 hour to sail out to the course area, depending on the wind strength and direction.

There are a number of hotels and motels in the area as well as camping, bed and breakfasts. You should make your reservations early, June is a busy time in Vermont.
