Mayor’s Cup Regatta
Join us on June 27th 2026 for our next Mayor’s Cup Regatta. Registering teams will start in early 2026!
The annual Mayor’s Cup Regatta takes place every Summer in Boston, with dozens of boats racing to raise funds for ASA programs, to raise awareness about our programs, and to challenge athletes of all abilities. This incredible event is the only of it’s kind. Founded by AccesSport Board Member, Bill Yates, this has been running continuously since 2000.
This is a very friendly event. Most have never paddled before so we teach each crew the basics of Hawaiian Outrigger Canoes before each race. Each crew usually has at least one AccesSportAmerica athlete paddling.
Race Divisions include Family 8’s (8 Person Crews), Family 4’s (4 Person Crews), Fun 8’s, School and Program 8’s, as well local challenge races like “The Battle for Great Road,” or “Past Champions.” We also have awards for the Best Team Uniform/Costume, and the “Honu Award,” for the most elegant or compelling team.
We look forward to seeing you and your crew for a great day on the water with nearly 300 Hawaiian outrigger racers, volunteers, and supporters. Race day will include timed races, on shore activities, live music. a luau/beach bbq and beverage pavilion.
