Schooner Creek Oregon Offshore International Yacht Club Winners 2018

2018 Oregon Offshore Winners overall and 1st in Class B


Schooner Creek Boat Works would like to congratulate all of the racers who participated in the 2018 Schooner Creek Boat Works Oregon Offshore International Yacht Race! Especially the overall winner Rain Drop with the youngest racer this year, 14 year old Piper Easton! Schooner Creek Boat Works is proud to support the sailboat racing community. It is very important to us that this community continues to expand and incorporate the next generation of sailors. We hope our commitment to 3 years of title sponsorship can help advance this race and the international sailing community. We believe the best way of expanding the sport is by introducing your passion for sailing to your friends and family. It's hard not to be intrigued by sailing once you've gotten a taste. We love being part of the Schooner Creek Boat Works Oregon Offshore International Yacht Race and are looking forward to future years!

More memories













Schooner Creek Boat Works enjoyed helping prep several of the race boats to make sure they were ready, safe and looking good for the race. We had the pleasure of servicing Riva, Anam Cara, Velocity, Souffle CAI 34 and Rage. These services included bottom paint, engine services, repairs and more. Pictured is Rage receiving last minute repairs from one of our lead technicians, Adam Blankinship. Come see us today to build your dream race boat or repair/prep your current boat for future races

Spar Trek has withdrawn, Souffle is cooking! Tabu is past Race Rocks!

Sail Change


Looks like the winds are shifting around and dying down from a a nice westerly spinnaker run to the East.  Whoever posted the Quicklook here looks like he is spinning the arm on Twister board. This will be a challenge for the sailors to fight current flow to finish the race.
