Chicago Yacht Club – Race to Mackinac – July 12 – 16, 2024
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.

Feeling lucky to have been able to sail in 20 Chicago to Mac races. Thanks to Peter Wright and Dina Howell Wright for another great race. Next up for Margot Neo 430 is the 100th running of the Bayview to Mac race starting this Saturday. #cycrtm

23 Favorite Moments from 2023 (not ranked) 4. The Race to Mackinac started with beautiful sunny skies, but near the end of the starts a storm broke out like no other. The rain was big, cold and fierce. The rain was so thick you swear it was snowing. Waterproof gear got tested.

With family in St Ignace, I have been to just about every event and activity in the area except one, until last week. The Chicago Yacht Club Race to Mackinac. We spent a day on Mackinac Island at the finish line watching the boats complete the 114th annual 333 mile race. It was a hazy day thanks to some more Canadian wild fire smoke so the vivid colors of the sails and bridge didn’t come through in the photos as well as in person. I still think you can get an idea of how special the day was. #CYCRTM #canonphotography #progradedigital #blackrapidstrap #thinktankphoto
