✨ Racing for Gold at the 22nd Annual Ms. Race! ⛵💛

On August 15, nine all-women crews took to Sandy Hook Bay for the 22nd Annual Ms. Race, hosted by Atlantic Highlands Yacht Club in support of 180 Turning Lives Around, a Monmouth County nonprofit helping survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.

This year’s theme, “Racing for Gold,” celebrated 180’s 50th anniversary and inspired a beautiful day of competition, camaraderie, and women supporting women, both on and off the water.

More than 175 spectators followed the action aboard the Seastreak spectator boat, and together, sponsors, sailors, supporters, and donors have helped raise well over $40,000 for 180 this year, and counting!

Ms. Race is more than a sailboat race. It’s a celebration of confidence, self-reliance, women on the water, and making an impact for an extraordinary cause.
