Through the
foresight and generosity of Peter Kellogg,
the World Duck Championships were
established sparking the resurgence and
restorations of more than 75 Duck Boats. The
evening
before the annual regatta, all participating
Duck Boats are displayed and judged on their
upkeep
and current condition.It is
Peter’s goal to preserve the history of the
wooden duck boat era.
As an incentive, each boat kept in “Bristol
Condition”, is eligible to receive up to
$1,000.
The boat crowned “Queen of the Show” can
receive up to $5,000. This is a “one-time”
award.
The money generated by our boat is
designated to the PBYC Jr. Sailing Program.
Over the years our boat has generated more
than $25,000 for the PBYC.
