        We are only a week out from the start of the Maritime Chess Festival, and yesterday we made a great addition, with IM Olivier Kenta Chiku-Ratte joining us for the Open, Rapid, and Blitz. Some great action ahead.

          The 2024 MCF kicks off tonight with the Maritime Rapid Championship.

          The Maritime Open starts tomorrow morning at 10am Atlantic (9am Eastern). We will be broadcasting the top 3 boards, which at this moment looks like FM Adam Dorrance, IM Olivier Kenta Chiku-Ratte and IM Rohan Talukdar.

            The 2025 Maritime Chess Festival will be held Oct 10-13 at Credit Union Place in Summerside, PE. As I did this year, I should be able to bring a few titled players to the Island from elsewhere.
