Performance Regattas launches its first mini series of the 2026 season at the St. Pete Pier!

12 teams will compete in a NEVER been done sailing experience with a racetrack on the water!

Two crew teams will complete one exciting and fast-paced lap per heat for 15 teams (round robin elimination tournament over 3 days) with 3 BirdyFish foiling boats “flying above the water”!

Sailors will compete for a chance to win a piece of the $5,000 prize money and registration is still open here.

Boats will be launched from Spa Beach, where you can also catch VDubbs on The Pier with Live DJ, giveaways, games and vendors!

Fans can head down to the end of The Pier and check out the boats flying above the water!

Races start approximately on Friday from 1pm, and Saturday and Sunday at 10am.
