Weekly Racing

We plan to race as a fleet on Tuesday evenings, running our own races.
  • First signal is at 18:00 hours, five minute count down. We start at 18:05 hours.
  • Expect to sail multiple races. Course will be posted at the committe boat.
  • Courses tend to be short windward/leeward. See the Course Map for marks.
  • Results are listed on the Havre de Grace Yacht Club web page.

    We plan to race with the Havre de Grace Yacht Club fleet occasionally on Thursday evenings:
  • First signal is at 18:15 hours, five minute count down. We start at 18:20 hours.
  • We sail with the first start in the Daysailer start. Our course board on the committe boat is labeled with a triangle.
  • Courses tend to be windward/leeward. See the Course Map for marks.
  • If the symbols on the course board are red, pass the marks to port; if green, pass to starboard.
  • We finish by crossing a line between the flagpole at the marina and the orange mooring ball, the "X" mark.
  • If the X mark is the last symbol on the course board, it only has to be passed at the finish. Often, the X mark is included in the course to give the Committe the option of shortening the race if conditions warrent.
  • We race with the Stars. There are typically between 10 and 15 boats on the start line.
  • Results are listed on the Havre de Grace Yacht Club web page.
