Buzzards Bay 420 Championship
Community Boating Center, Inc to host club 420 North Americans
The 2018 Buzzards Bay 420 Championship will be the club 420 North American Championship and will once again be run out of Fort Taber August 2-5, 2018. The event is expected to attract nearly 200 teams to enjoy the legendary fresh breeze of Buzzards Bay. CBC is proud to cooperate with New Bedford Parks and Recreation and the city of New Bedford.
The shore base at Fort Taber is very close to the race course, and just a few miles from the wonders of downtown New Bedford, the city that lit the world. Parents and sailors will enjoy the racing, but don’t miss the New Bedford Whaling National Historic Park, fresh seafood, remarkable antique stores and perhaps the symphony orchestra.
