On October 22nd, the crew of Spitfire will join more than 100 boats in the 39th Annual Harvest Moon Regatta, a 150+ mile offshore race from Galveston to Port Aransas, Texas. Six sailors, one boat, and a shared mission: to push ourselves to the limit while supporting a cause that has touched so many lives.
The course is never easy. Through day and night, we'll navigate shifting winds, dodge derelict oil platforms scattered across the Gulf, and battle whatever conditions Mother Nature sends our way, including the possibility of 10-foot swells. Offshore racing demands resilience, teamwork, and determination. It requires trusting one another when conditions are toughest and keeping our sights set on the finish line.
Those same qualities are reflected every day in the fight against cancer.
This year, we are proud to raise funds for the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, whose groundbreaking research, innovative treatments, and compassionate care bring hope to patients and families facing cancer. It is a mission that is close to our hearts and one that continues to inspire us both on and off the water.
Your support helps fund:
- Innovative therapies that improve outcomes and quality of life for cancer patients.
- Research that advances cancer prevention, detection, and treatment.
- Training programs for the next generation of clinicians and scientists.
- The relentless pursuit of better answers, better treatments, and ultimately, cures.
As Spitfire makes its way across the Gulf, every mile sailed will serve as a reminder that meaningful progress comes from perseverance. While our crew races toward Port Aransas, researchers, clinicians, patients, and families are engaged in a much more important race, one against cancer.
We invite you to join us in supporting Dana-Farber's life-changing mission. Every donation, large or small, helps fuel discoveries, provide hope, and change lives.
Together, we can help turn courage into progress, hope into action, and miles sailed into meaningful impact.
Thank you for supporting the crew of Spitfire and the fight against cancer.
