Corsica River yacht Club, on the Chesapeake's picturesque and tranquil Eastern Shore, will host the 2010 Laser District 11 Championship on August 28th-29th. Corsica River Yacht Club is a great place to sail with a lot of open water, very limited motor boat chop, easy beach launching and plenty of grass on which to park, rig and camp. We greatly appreciate your attendance at the District 11 Championship and we will work hard to ensure that it is an enjoyable weekend for you.

This regatta will be hosted at Ship Point with our brand new pavilion and bath house. We will be sailing in the Chester River beyond the mouth of the Corsica River
