Canadian Club isn’t just a great whisky, it’s a renowned international sailing race hosted by the Windsor Yacht Club.

The Canadian Club Invitational Yacht race, now in it’s 47th year, is an annual tradition deeply rooted in the community and among sailors. With more than 70+ vessels participating annually, spectators and passersby were  treated to an awe-inspiring sight as participants set sail on Lake St. Clair in a 34.2-nautical-mile overnight race.

The 47th Canadian Club Invitational Yacht Race was held on Friday June 14, 2019.

The Chimo, which mean "I am friendly" in Inuktitut (language of Northern Canada), is an end-of-season event open to sailors of all clubs in the Windsor and Detroit area. Starting in the Detroit River directly in front of WYC, sailors head out into the middle of Lake St. Clair to complete a 7.2-nautical mile course finishing back at WYC. The start is always a crowd pleaser.

The next Chimo will be held on October 2, 2019

Notice of Race and Sailing Instructions will be published in the Spring 2019.
