Helly Hansen recently announced its continuation as the name and title sponsor of the National Offshore One Design (NOOD) Regattas in 2022. The NOOD series is the largest sailing regatta series in North America.
 
Helly Hansen has had a longstanding partnership with the NOOD Regattas and is a leader in performance sailing apparel. Helly Hansen and NOOD look to build on a solid 2021 season that saw strong participation among competitors at all five domestic events.
 
“Helly Hansen is very excited to be back again for the eighth year with the NOOD Regatta Series. NOOD, Sailing World and the host clubs have been fantastic partners since we came on as title-sponsor in 2013,” said Deborah Beggan, vice president of sales, Helly Hansen US. “It’s been amazing to be a part of a regatta series that brings so many people out on the water in multiple locations. Each NOOD Regatta has become a cherished summer event for locals, increasing participation in the sport and contributing to the future success of sailing. It’s an honor to be involved and provide them with amazing technical sailing gear that helps them perform and have fun.”
