There is nothing more uniquely Maine than a day at the Harpswell Lobster Boat Races!
For nearly 30 years, the Harpswell Lobster Boat Races have attracted fishermen, boat builders, and race fans alike due to the venue’s extreme beauty and fun, family atmosphere.
A shortage of volunteer support forced Harpswell to put the races on hiatus for a few years...until this Summer!!
Mark your calendar for July 28, 2019 (Rain Date Aug 4) because the townspeople of Harpswell, Maine have come together to rejoin Maine’s summer lobster boat racing circuit.
