Check and see who has pre-registered HERE
CRAM is holding our season opening two day regatta at Crescent Sail Yacht Club (CSYC). This is an excellent venue to start the year. The water in Lake St. Clair is fairly shallow and warms up a bit more quickly than the deeper lakes; its more protected as well. Regardless, where else can you sail in two countries within 10 minutes of launching? Crescent Sail Yacht Club is a laid back and friendly club and we hope you enjoy your time with us. All catamarans are invited to this weekend regatta.

We once again will support the Leukemia cup regatta which is a fantastic cause that is also held on the same weekend. This year we participate as one big happy CRAM donation team. Clicking the above banner will take you to the team page. Donations are completely voluntary and we encourage you to also ask your friends who may not be sailing to support this great cause as well. For your convenience, you have the option of donating through the above link or as a part of regatta registration below.

If you'd like to stay on-site, we have a couple options:
- There is space for up to 5 RVs - these need to be reserved ahead of time on a 1st come, 1st served basis.
- In addition, CSYC has limited on-site housing available via bunking in a "big boat". Think of it as a floating camper - it actually works quite well!
