Leukemia Cup 2018

October 4, 2018

Sail in the Leukemia Cup Regatta and Join Modern Sailing in Fighting Blood Cancer

The registration fee to participate is $150. Modern Sailing donates 100% of the registration fees to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS).

The Leukemia Cup Regattas, established in 1993, are national charitable sailing and cruising events committed to raising funds to support the mission of The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS). The SF Bay Area’s Leukemia Cup began in 2005.

How can you participate? Come sailing with us!

Join one of the race boats as crew! Each boat will have a Modern Sailing Coach on board to guide you and lead the team across the finish line – no racing experience necessary.

As a participant, you can have an online fundraising page to raise additional funds. Help fund research to cure blood cancers and support one of the most efficient charities, with 75% of your donation going to programs, services and research.

Last year we had 7 boats on the water and more than 40 participants.  We collectively raised $28K!! This year, we want to beat that!!

Sign-up now! Specific boat assignments will be administered by Modern Sailing. If you have team requests please contact us!

    I try to get out on the water every week: out the Gate, around Angel, up Raccoon - I love it all. After 18 years as a member of OCSC in Berkeley, I learned to sail the bigger boats at Modern by taking ASA 103 and 104. My ASA 104 instructor Dave Russell was terrific. Also, Captain Bill Moreland has been very generous in giving informal advice whenever I’ve asked him. Thanks to Bill, I no longer have any anxiety about docking!

    The meeting room was quite adequate and the location most convenient, but the course outline and instruction were outstanding. Modern Sailing is fortunate to have such a well organized instructor in Mr. Stan Lander who teaches very well from a rich professional background. Mr. Lander was generous with his time and patiently in helping students who needed more attention or time in understanding various aspects of the curriculum.

    The class was terrific. I know you must get many compliments about your sailing instructors...But I must tell you that Robert is outstanding. Having taught SCUBA, I really appreciate the way he is so sensitive to all on board, dealing with each so well, knowing quickly their strengths and weaknesses making each feel special and cared for.

    Here are some snaps of Our Saturday, August 20, 2022 Modern Sailing Expedition with Captain Robert Bivin, who was outstanding. Please convey photos and thanks to him. He is an outstanding individual, leader and sailing instructor. His knowledge and experience made us all feel safe and our Farallones Day Trip educational and just amazing.
