Pink Boat Regattas Raise 1/2 Million Dollars!

J/35 sailing Pink Regattas series in Seattle, WA (Seattle, WA)- Kurt Hoehne, an active sailor and writer of the popular blog- SAILISH.com- in the Pacific Northwest offered some thoughts on their popular charity sailing event held each summer- the “Pink Boat Regattas”.

Said Kurt, “The Pink Boat Regattas have proven an effective and extremely fun fundraiser for sailors to help fight breast cancer. The final tallies aren’t in for this year’s three Pacific Northwest events (Bellingham, Seattle, Tacoma), but Jennifer Mathis of the Pink Boat Regatta reports that more than a half million dollars have been raised over seven years, and that Tacoma exceeded their goal of $20,000.

Jan Anderson was on hand in Seattle and Tacoma to catch some of the action– e – costumes and smiles. If you want to plenty more pink, check her Seattle and Tacoma galleries!!”  To learn more about the Pink Boat Regattas and Sailish.com, read more here Add to Flipboard Magazine.
