Fourth of July: No Evening race, come to the Firecracker Regatta

You heard right, folks! NO FNR this F.

As reported in the Notice of Race and the Sailing Instructions, there is no race this Friday evening, July 4. Instead, we have a free race for the middle of the day! First gun at 12:55.

 

Special Special Special Regattas! Firecracker. Sarcoma. Visit the Vic.

Because you're Good Enough, You're Fast Enough, and darn it, people Like You!

KABOOM! Firecracker Regatta at CYC July 4

July 4 "Firecracker" regatta! Open to all FNR entries and all CYC members. Midday race, finish in time to bob about with the flock going OOOOh and AAAAAH, or hang out on our deck, enjoy the barbeque, and relax. Your call. The NOR is here, the SI's are here.

CYC FNR: Minor tweak to SI's

Error-Free Racing!

Yup! That's our goal. Okay, let's be honest, the goal over the last three races has been just to finish the darned thing. Through selection of aggressively short courses last week, we accomplished that (gotta clear out the glasses somehow....).

Now, with a steady weather pattern settling in for the weekend, maybe we try a bit longer.

Friday Night Races

Like swallows to Capistrano, like salmon to their native stream, like the buzzards returning to Hinckley, our loyal racers and new friends return the second weekend every April to the challenging waters off Corinthian Yacht Club.

CYC Midwins: Just My Luck

Updated Results are online. Midwinters Fleet from Rockskipper.com

Feeling Lucky?

Well, Saturday was perhaps the prettiest day sailing one can imagine. Clear blue skies, unseasonably mild. Smooth still water. Not a breath of wind.

Schock and Awe

Almost there!

Couple of points to consider: The currents will be strong and ebbing. We will work to give you do-able courses. Think cone. Think islands. Hope for breeze. Saturday's forecast is for Northeast winds 5-10 knots. The race may not always go to the swift, but it will surely go to the clever.

20th Anniversary Midwin SI's Now Posted

January 19-20 and February 16-17. CYC MidWInters. Not CYC's 20th, mine! The CYC Midwins must be at least 30 years old now. Most likely, the Miwok competed in leather-covered canoes as they paddled over to what we now call Angel Island to gather shells and hunt deer. Think about it, MidWinter boat races have been here for centuries.

If the Miwok had had a YRA, they'd probably still be racing today. But enough history...
