San Diego Yacht Club’s annual Women’s Winter Invitational Regatta returns this upcoming winter, February 16-18, 2024. Recently having won the US Sailing One Design Regatta Award, this all-woman, three-day competition attracts sailors from all over the world.
The Women’s Winter Invitational is sailed at SDYC directly off the docks in La Playa and features the Club’s J/22 sailboats, which are sponsored by Mount Gay. The course can expect more than 80 sailors over 24 teams for an action-packed regatta weekend on and off the water.

My three other teammates, who are all current or past members of my collegiate sailing team, traveled from around the country to meet me in Rochester.
This event was our first time to test ourselves against some of the best match racers in the country, including world-ranked #1 and multiple other top 30 world-ranked match racers. The format was a single round robin into quarter-finals, then sem-finals, and then finals. Rochester Yacht Club had a great setup, with 8 sonars and warm hospitality. Lake Ontario also provided great conditions, each day brought wind into the teens and one day over 20kts. These conditions provided a challenge for all competitors trying to optimize their boat handling, which is all-important in match racing.

With an instructional, encouraging, and fun format, especially tailored towards new and novice racers, Regatta Co-Chairs Barrett and Lily Canfield of South Coast Yachts are very pleased with how the regatta has grown over the years, and with how many of the sailors introduced to racing at Beneteau Cup have gone on to compete in, and place well in other Southern California and regional regattas such as the Beer Can Series, Hot Rums, CRA Sponsored races, and long distance races, like Newport- Ensenada.

It was fast, it was frenetic, and it was fun. The Women’s Winter Invitational Regatta brought 26 teams from across the United States and Canada, plus one from Brazil, to the San Diego Yacht Club in February.
“It was the best organized chaos I’ve ever seen and absolutely a blast,” said Kaci Yachechak-Gibbs, who traveled to the competition from North Flathead Yacht Club in Montana.
