We have contended all along that our ability to host the CYCRTM race this year will be dependent on the alignment of three key items: The ability to run a safe race with consideration of the safety, health and well-being of all of the participants and our volunteers. The availability of equipment: the ability to have boats safely provisioned in time for the race in such a manner that we can inspect and check their compliance with CMSRs. The proper clearance from governmental bodies: which include the States of Illinois and Michigan, the Cities of Chicago and Mackinac Island, and the USCG.

READ ARTICLE Racer Update: March 19, 2020 Posted Mar 19, 2020 Planning for the 112th Chicago Yacht Club Race to Mackinac continues even under isolation. Our organizing committee is monitoring the COVID-19 situation closely, and while we are still a ways away from the July 17th and 18th start dates, I want to ensure you that we will be in communication with you regarding any changes to our plans. As a committee, we’re busy looking at how we can keep the race safe, and yet provide an opportunity to escape from what has been going on with COVID-19. That said, we’re optimistic at this time that we’ll be able to provide a world-class event for all of our racers, fans and friends in July.
