Join in the fun at The Center for Wooden Boat's 17th Norm Blanchard W.O.O.D. (Wooden Open & One Design) Regatta, honoring the best known name in wooden boatbuilding and yachting in the Pacific Northwest. Norman C. Blanchard’s Blanchard Boat Company turned out more than 2,000 boats in 60+ years during the past century. Quality, performance and longevity are the hallmarks of Norm Blanchard.

Separate prizes will be awarded for small boats, large boats, and classic plastic boats.

CWB's SMALL Sailboat Regatta Fleet Includes:

  • 3 Pelicans
  • 1 Riff Sailing Dinghy
  • 1 Monk Sloop
  • 1 Sid Skiff
  • 3 Lake Union Swifts (1-2 person capacity)*
  • 6 RS Fevas (1 person capacity)*
  • 5 El Toros (1 person capacity)*

 

All SMALL sailboats (except the El Toros and Fevas) have capacity of two sailors for this regatta. You may register as a team of two sailors in one boat OR individuals and we'll complete your team of two sailors (and you'll maybe meet someone new!). The Race Committee will consider your CWB boat preferences in the final registration form but cannot guarantee your boat assignment in advance. Vessels will be assigned on a first registered, first assigned basis.

* CWB Small Boat Practice: If you’re registering to race a small CWB boat not in our normal livery (El Toro, Feva, or Lake Union Swift), we’ll offer a practice session the weekend of September 17-18th. Register and we’ll let you know the practice session times in advance!

ALL SAILORS (SKIPPERS AND CREW) REGISTERED AND RACING CWB VESSELS MUST HAVE AN ACTIVE SAILING LIVERY CARD ON FILE PRIOR TO RACE DAY. (If you do not have a livery card or it has expired, please arrange for a checkout as soon as possible HERE. Watch for more checkout availability in the near term.)

Once registered, you'll receive a confirmation email with link to our final registration form and waiver with information needed by the Race Committee. Final registration must be completed to consider boat preferences, skipper and crew preferences, and team formation. We may have more skippers than we have CWB boats racing, in which case two skippers may be assigned on a team to share duties.

You'll receive information from the Race Committee the week before the regatta with vessel and team assignments.
