I got this from a Buccaneer site but it looks like and open event and might be of interest to some of the southern New England DaySailers.
You're invite you to come here to CT this spring for the CT River Dinghy Distance Race.
It'll be held on Saturday, May 17, 2014 racing from East Haddam to Old Saybrook CT - about 10.5nm down the CT river.
Given the unpredictable nature of the river, it could be anything from dead upwind to dead downwind the whole way - or both in any given stretch!
This looks like a great, fun event !

Anyone else planning on making this trip? It looks like I'm about 99% in, I'd love to get some more Daysailers out there.

Also anyone have experience on this portion of the river? What is the current like? I'd hate to end up 10 miles the other way.
