The Konocti Cup Regatta is the KBSC, Inc.'s biggest race of the year. Starting in 1984 this race has enjoyed great popularity and has drawn sailboats of all sizes from near and far. The Full Cup is 26 miles and the Half Cup is 13 miles. 
In 1984, four Clear Lake sailors who had participated in a regatta on Folsom Lake, decided to hold a regatta on Clear Lake. The Lakeport Yacht Club put on the regatta for the next four years, but then decided not to continue holding the race, so several members split off, gathered other sailors, and formed the Konocti Bay Sailing Club which has continued the Konocti Cup Regatta ever since.  Joe Mazzola, of the Konocti Harbor Inn, wanted to promote sailing on the lower end of Clear Lake.  The Konocti Cup sailed out of the Konocti Harbor marina until the  race moved to Konocti Bay Sailing Club, Inc.’s headquarters at Braito’s Marina on Buckingham peninsula. The Regatta is held every year on the fourth Saturday in April. After missing one year due to Covid restrictions the racing has resumed and 2025 marks our 40th year!
