Tea Kettle — Spinnaker - Class C

TEA KETTLE RACE
• SPINNAKER DIVISION — CLASS C •

First on Corrected Time
23rd Awarding — 2011

This race was created in 1963 by Regatta Co-Chairs Bill Brown III and Chuck Bowen. For several years LCYC had provided a start for the Mallets Bay Boat Club Coffee Pot Race, an informal race for MBBC members returning to their club from winter storage at Shelburne Shipyard. Brown & Bowen decided we should use the same start for a similar race for LCYC members. Thus was born the Tea Kettle to go along with the Coffee Pot. An old copper tea kettle became the first traveling trophy. Other tea kettles were added in later years as more classes developed, and in 1989 this new trophy was created for Class C.
