2026 Fleet Calendar
Thanks to San Diego’s year-round weather, we race every month — one weekend of windward-leeward racing from January through December. Spring brings more breeze and visiting teams; summer highlights our local Corinthian fleet with favorites like South Bay Weekend. We wrap it all up with the Kris Kringle on the City Front.
Bill Bennett Cup (WCSS #1)
The Bill Bennett Cup is the opening event of the West Coast Sprint Series, bringing top-tier Etchells competition to San Diego Bay. This regatta honors the legacy of Bill Bennett, a beloved SDYC member and exceptional sailor.
Pacific Coast Championship (WCSS #2)
The Pacific Coast Championship returns to San Diego as Event #2 in the West Coast Sprint Series (WCSS) — and the first regatta of the season held under full class rules. That means weigh-ins, sail declarations, and all the formality of championship-level racing.
Orca Bowl/PreWorlds (WCSS #4)
The Orca Bowl is the final stop on the West Coast Sprint Series — and the most relaxed, fun-focused event of the season. While the racing is still competitive, the real highlight is the Saturday night BBQ, a long-standing tradition known for great food, cold drinks, and plenty of laughs.
