Back in 1995, Victoria was the first city outside of Vancouver to host the Mobility Cup – and, 20 years later, the regatta returned. The 2015 event was understandably larger, with more participants, and an overall higher level of skill. In all, 40 sailors from across Canada and the US competed in the 2015 event. Victoria is one of the oldest cities on the Pacific Northwest, dating back to 1843, and a popular tourist destination. The regatta has hosted by Canadian Forces Sailing Association in Esquimalt harbour, which is one nautical mile from Downtown Victoria. Esquamalt actually has more history than Victoria, being inhabited by indigenous Coast Salish for thousands of years. “Is-whoy-malth,” they called it, referring to the flats at the head of the harbour. |
