Based in Western Long Island Sound, Etchells Fleet One was formed in 1969 and today many fleet members sail out of Larchmont Yacht Club and American Yacht Club, with a boat or two from the North Shore of Long Island. We race a focused schedule of local races on Saturday afternoons from Memorial Day until Columbus Day.
The fleet has about 6-8 actively raced boats for most Saturdays, and 10-15 turning out for larger regattas in the season.
Much of the racing takes place in the middle of the Sound between Larchmont on the north shore of the Sound and Oyster Bay on the south side.
