Puerto Galera Yacht Club All Souls Regatta 2010

The PGYC ASR will be 12 years old this year and will be held over the All Souls weekend from Saturday, October 30, to Monday, November 1, 2010. This is by far our most popular race and we expect an even larger number of yachts this year. The three Day event takes places in and around the coastal waters of Puerto Galera and the Verde Island passage. The strong, steady North Easterlies of the seasonal ‘Amihan’ create ideal and exciting racing conditions with lots of serious spinnaker action.

Be there to enjoy it… there is always room for one more!
