Summer series
The first race of the Summer Series is typically either the day of the Season Opener, or the following day. It’s a fun day’s racing as boats are being shaken down and anything can happen results wise.
The Summer Series itself consists of a number of different series of races. We usually have a Pursuit Series, and a Signature Series (racing around the green cans). Summer Series races are run under YTC Ratings, and we’re experimenting with a ‘no spinnaker’ allowance for pursuit races. Entry forms and more information on the Information page.
Season Opener
Our sailing year traditionally starts with the ‘Season Opener’ when the yachts which have over-wintered ashore return to the lake.
The season opener is an informal get together in a local pub/eatery (the last few have been in the Boathouse, before that in the Hole I’th Wall.
It’s a chance to catch up after the winter and start planning a summer’s sailing.
