Easton extends streak, but Eagles win title

Regatta Series Brings The Big Fleets to Annapolis
There’s a bizarre, but now seemingly sacred tradition in Annapolis these days where, come the spring equinox, boaters of all ilk gather round at the Maritime Museum and toss their token stinkers into the flames at the annual Sock Burning Festival. And not long after the embers die, boatyards are chucking boats into the Chesapeake at a harried pace. Annapolis YC’s Wednesday-night racing series kickoff comes next and then there’s the big season-opener: the Helly Hansen Sailing World Regatta Series. With more than 200 boats—224 to be exact on the eve of the regatta—and all area yacht club hands are on deck and this year’s edition is expected to be a spicy one. And we’re not talking Old Bay.
