The Swag Store is LIVE! The Nationals Team has put together a full complement of cool Snipe gear that lets you choose your own style: Are you a cotton shirt guy? Polo gal? Love the tech material? Hat more your style? YOU CHOOSE! Instead of giving away a shirt you may or may not wear, the 2021 Nationals Regatta will give you the coupon equivalent of a cotton tshirt ($10 per person) that you can use to either redeem a FREE cotton tshirt (in a multitude of colors) OR you can apply the coupon towards any of the other higher end offerings.
Sponsors are creating value for participants in the 2021 US Snipe Nationals, from great video coverage to cool swag.

Congrats to Tyler Mowry/Izzy Fadullon for squeaking out a win over Christian… Continue reading Tyler Mowry/Izzy Fadullon win Wild, Windy Hospice Cup
For the first time, the Snipe Class has been invited to participate in the Annapolis Hospice Cup! This is a one-day regatta for only $20 (if you register by 9/4!) with 3-5 W/L races set off Bembe Beach. This event has LOTS of moving pieces, all to support the important work that Hospice Cup is doing, particularly during this pandemic.
2020 Frigid Digit chosen as ACC's! Thanks to the hard work of SSA and the compliance of Marylanders to keep our COVID rates low, the Annapolis Snipe Fleet is happy to announce that we will be hosting our annual Frigid Digit on Oct 3-4, 2020. Because we are one of the few venues able to host regattas in the Midatlantic Region, the Frigid Digit has been chosen as the temporary home of the Atlantic Coast Championships (we look forward to going back to Surf City next year!).
