| The Antique
Raceboat Regatta is hosted by The
Antique Boat Museum in Clayton, New York. This museum is situated on
the St. Lawrence Seaway. The museum was established on the grounds of a
dilapidated boat works company in 1971 and then the old lumberyard adjacent
to the property was added in 1974. The trustees have steadily added property
and buildings so that the museum currently covers two acres of waterfront,
nine buildings and four off-site storage facilities. All these new buildings
have been built to house the ever inceasing collection of Antique &
Historic boats. This backdrop makes for a great location to see these old
racing hulls of yesteryear. The Antique Race Boat Regatta event has been
held every even numbered year since it's beginning in 1992. If you never
attended this regatta, and you love old race boats, this is a must see
event. |
