Each season we run 12 regular series races on Saturdays divided between a Spring Series and a Summer Series.
The Spring and Summer series races will start at 12:30 PM. Skippers meeting for all series races will be held at Indian Peaks Marina (formerly Grand Elk Marina,) at 11:00AM, usually on “D” dock. Weather permitting, the first race will start right around 12:30PM. Scoring will be with one throw-out race for both the spring and summer series.
RACE FEES
The normal entry fee has been $10.00 per day. Remit to the club treasurer (currently Terry Pratt.)
We will be using the starting sequence as described in the 2009-2012 US Sailing racing rule book:
