The 2024 International Skeeter Association (ISA) Regatta and Renegade Championship have been called ON for this weekend, December 13-15 on Lake Minnewaska, Starbuck, Minnesota! Notice of Race Sailing Instructions & Conditions
ISA & Renegade Championship Regatta: A three-day event beginning Friday, December 13.
This is a regatta for the following classes. A, B, and C Skeeters, Renegades, and Nites.
The DN Western Region Championship has also been called on at the same location. We will be sharing the launch, the fun, and possibly the race course with the DN fleet. The Race Committees will decide on the ice whether all fleets will race on one course or have separate courses based upon conditions.
DO NOT DRIVE ON THE ICE! Back your trailers on the ice.
Important: Registration is ONLINE ONLY and closes Friday morning at 7 AM CT. There will be no in-person registration, so please ensure you register online before the deadline.
The 2024 International Renegade Association Championship is tentatively called on for Saturday, December 7, and Sunday, December 8, 2024.
The potential location is Lake Puckaway near Princeton, WI. While final confirmation will be posted by Thursday, December 5, at noon, our scouts expect to have an update by Wednesday, December 4.
Stay tuned for updates as we finalize the plans. Dust off your gear, prepare your Renegades, and get ready for a weekend of sailing
JD has reconvened the 2024 ISA Race Committee. The normal process will restart, with the Sunday prior to the regatta used to review ice reports and make a call on with a likely location.
The Committee will be taking advantage of the DN Western Challenge taking place on the weekend of December 7th, to get very complete information on ice thickness, area, quality and launch access.
The most likely first date for the regatta is December 13th, 14th and 15th 2024. The location will likely be in the general vicinity of Alexandria Minnesota. Once the first meeting is held an update will be posted.
