Thistle Midwinters West 2023

Join us in San Diego for the Thistle Midwinters West Championship (Feb. 2-4) and the Larry Klein Match Racing Championship (Feb. 5)!

At the Thistle Midwinters West Championship you’ll enjoy three days of Pacific Ocean racing (with stunning views of the Mission Beach Boardwalk and the San Diego Peninsular Range) and California-casual evenings to catch up with old friends and make new ones. The excitement continues on Sunday with the Larry Klein Match Racing Championship Regatta.
