“We’re honored to continue our partnership with Safe Harbor Marinas for the 52nd Bermuda Race,” said BROC Chairman Somers Kemp. “Safe Harbor’s wide range of marine services and race preparation capabilities bring vital expertise to many sailors preparing their yachts for the 635-mile Thrash to the Onion Patch.” Additionally, the Crew Party will take place in downtown Newport at Safe Harbor Newport Shipyard on June 15th.

Safe Harbor’s network includes member privileges at more than 130 locations across the United States and Caribbean.
