On October 4, an estimated 800 to 1,000 people will attend the New York Harbor Regatta at Governors Island. America’s Cup 12-Metres and J/24s will race on New York Harbor for the annual event, now in its third year. The regatta benefits New York Harbor Foundation’s programs for the students of New York Harbor School, New York City’s only public maritime high school. Activities start at noon and run until 10:30 p.m.; there’s a post-racing party scheduled and a harbor cocktail cruise, in addition to the racing.
