History[edit]
During a meeting of the Florida West Coast Racing Association in March 1931, Bill Crosby promised to publish a new trailer boat design in the magazine 'The Rudder'. This was done on the July 1931 issue, and the new boat was called 'Snipe'. The first boat, named 'Adelaide', was built in Pass Christian, Mississippi, by Jimmy Brown and father, and was issued sail number 1 of the class in September 1931, and is now in the collection of the Antique Boat Museum, located at Clayton, New York.[3] By May 1932, 150 boats were already registered, and by the end of the year the number reached 250. In July 1936, the class was the largest racing class in the world.
Regattas[edit]
Regattas are held in most countries and local, regional, national and international championships offer great opportunities to compete at different levels of skills. Most regattas include open, junior, women, masters and coed categories.
The World Championships are the most important competitions, followed by the Europeans and the Western Hemisphere & Orient Championships. These regattas are sailed every two years. In Europe, the European Cup is sailed alternately (odd numbered years) with the European Championship (even numbered years).
Annual regattas include the North American Championship and the South American Championship in the Western Hemisphere and the South European Championship, Nordic Championship and East European Championship in Europe.
