In 2024 Fleet 66 will be directly giving back to the community that has brought all of us so many fantastic memories these past 35 years. The proceeds from this years regatta will be donated to the orphanage in Rocky Point, Esperanza Para Los Ninos.
The home has an average of 38 children ranging from kindergarden to high-school and is based in Puerto Penasco.
Besides the regatta proceeds we will also be asking for donations of items that the orphanage can use which we will deliver to the orphanage over the weekend.
Update: The fleet was able to donate $2000 to the orphanage! Thank you very much to all our participants and sponsors!!!
