More than 50 years of sailing tradition continues this weekend at Maine Maritime Academy as the Pen Bay Open and Harman Cup return to Castine!

Racing begins Saturday, September 12, at 1:00 p.m. and will feature some of the region's top collegiate sailing programs.

The Pen Bay... Open will welcome 18 boats and competitors from Vermont, the University of New Hampshire, Boston University, Massachusetts Maritime Academy, Northeastern, Salve Regina, McGill, and UMass Amherst.

The Harman Cup is named in honor of longtime MMA Waterfront Director and ICSA Hall of Fame member Phil Harman. The event serves as a qualifier for the NEISA Match Race Championship (Larry White Trophy), which will be hosted later this year by Maine Maritime Academy in conjunction with the Corinthian Yacht Club in Marblehead, Massachusetts.

Teams competing for the Harman Cup include Northeastern, Tufts, Boston University, Massachusetts Maritime Academy, UNH, Bowdoin, Maine Maritime Academy, and Vermont.

Good luck to all competitors, and we look forward to welcoming sailors, coaches, families, and fans to Castine for a great weekend on the water!

On Saturday, members of the Class of 2030 headed to Acadia National Park for the annual first-year student trip!

Under beautiful sunny skies, there was something for everyone: hiking the Beehive Trail, testing their grappling skills, burying their peers at Sand Beach, finding a quiet spot ...to get some work done, or deciding that a sunny day in Acadia was the perfect excuse for a well-earned nap.

All in all, it was a great opportunity for the Class of 2030 to connect, relax, and enjoy one of Maine's most beautiful places together.
