Regatta Watch: 2024 Nite Nationals Tentatively Called On

by | Dec 2, 2024 | Home Page, Regattas


Via International Nite Class Commodore Maureen Bohleber:

The 2024 Nite Nationals are tentatively called on for December 7-8. Come a day early and enjoy some pick up races to get those spider webs out of the way.

Lake Puckaway, WI is looking good. Located west of Green Lake it has produced early ice before with regatta performance ice. Presently it has at least 2 inches of solid ice near shore and looks like a 10. We will give you an additional update on Wednesday 12/4. There is a good possibility we may share the course with the Renegades.
