Sailors from 15 different U.S. states as well as Ontario, Switzerland, and as far off as Hong Kong, are preparing for the race of a lifetime – the 333 mile Chicago Yacht Club Race to Mackinac, presented by Wintrust.
The Mac, as it is affectionately known, kicks off Friday, July 12, 2024 (cruising division) and Saturday, July 13, 2024 (racing division) with 3,000 sailors competing in this world-class sporting event. Although The Mac remains primarily an amateur event, this race has a proven track record of attracting some of the finest sailing talent in the sport.
The Chicago Yacht Club Race to Mackinac is the longest, annual freshwater sailing race in the world. It takes place on Lake Michigan.

A wreath at Little Stone Church celebrating the life of Chicago sailor Jon Santarelli who went overboard during this weekend’s race to Mackinac. Island flags have been ordered to half staff as a tribute. Our thoughts and prayers remain with his family, friends, and the entire racetomackinac community. 🙏🏽⛵️🇺🇸 #AmericasOffShoreChallenge #CYCRTM #MyMackinac #PureMichigan #MackinacIsland #Mackinac #StraitsofMackinac #Michigan #UpNorth #UpperPeninsula #FreshWater #Travel #IslandLife #GreatLakes #IGTravel #InstaTravel #TravelGram #Wanderlust #Travel #Travelingram #LakeHuron
