2025 Master Mariners Regatta

Established in 1867 as a Fourth of July race among the working boats of San Francisco Bay, the Master Mariners Regatta became a celebrated local tradition until 1891, when steam vessels eclipsed the age of sail. Revived in 1965 for National Maritime Day, today’s Regatta typically features 80 to 100 classically built wooden sailboats racing each Memorial Day weekend.

Congratulations, Master Mariners!

On behalf of the Master Mariners Benevolent Association, our Race Committee, and every volunteer afloat and ashore:
Thank you for making the 2025 Master Mariners Regatta unforgettable.
