With cash and gear prizes — not to mention bragging rights all year long — you won't want to miss taking part in this year's races!
Our 2018 comeback is still going strong...because there's nothing more uniquely Maine than a day at the Harpswell Lobster Boat Races!
For over 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 the Summer of 2018!!
Mark your calendar for July 30, 2023 because the townspeople of Harpswell, Maine have come together once again to join Maine’s summer lobster boat racing circuit.
