It is the 14th Annual High Performance Regatta, originally named the “HPDO”, the regatta has been renamed to indicate the focus on a wider array of boats.  Commodore Andy Giglia commented on this regatta, “the membership of AYC is aware of the changing landscape of sailing and to further support our mission statement ‘enhancing our heritage of leadership in the sport of sailing and furthering the growth of the sport’, we are committed to help lead that change.”
