Weekly Racing
We plan to race as a fleet (SI) on Tuesday evenings, running our own races.
- First signal is at 18:00 hours, three minute count down. We start at 18:03 hours.
- Expect to sail multiple races. Course will be posted at the committe boat.
- Courses tend to be short windward/leeward.
We plan to race with the Havre de Grace Yacht Club once per month 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.
