Once Flight of the Snowbirds, today s Flight of Newport Beach sailboat race carries on 85-year tradition

Print Sunday found local sailing enthusiasts vying for bragging rights in the 85th annual Flight of Newport Beach, but one did not need to be a sailor to appreciate the stirring vision as the race got underway on the south side of Balboa Island. ”You’ll never see that many sailboats on a start line at the same time,” said David Beek, race chairman. “They all line up and want to be the first one across the start line.” Beek’s father, Balboa Island resident Seymour Beek, began racing in the event in 1941 when it was Flight of the Snowbirds. He was 7 years old and captured the award for the youngest skipper.
