Welcome to 2024 JYC Racing Season! Our 1st Spring Race was a bit chilly with the gusty wind and water temp at 51, but we had great attendance.
Although we had to do a dock start, the mooring field was mostly clear and SW wind worked in our favor.
Thank you all for your participation. Please remember to use the Course list from the Race Book until the new South Bay Chart is available in a few weeks.
Also, please remember to check out with RC if leaving the race area prior to finishing. This is a requirement in our sailing instructions and you may be protested by the RC for not following this.
See you on the water next week!

To our JYC Racers,
Great Skippers Meeting conducted tonight with good attendance in person and on Zoom. We appreciate your attention to the changes we’ve made for this season and the Safety presentation we had regarding our narrow channel.
Many thanks to Dave Kane, a Navigation instructor from the Surface Warfare Schools Command (SWSC) and a Narragansett Bay sailor. I’ve summarized his presentation in the post-meeting Skippers Mtg presentation.
Also, many thanks to CYC for allowing us to use their facility for this event. Much appreciated.
For those who were unable to attend, please see the attached presentation for a summary of this year’s changes/updates. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.
Hope to see you all on the water soon!
Regards,
Cheryl

JYC Racers, despite our struggles with the tide/current today in setting our pin, the day was a great finish to the 2023 racing season. Thank you to all our racers and a special thank you to our great volunteers on race committee! Hopefully, we’ll see you all at the Installation & Awards Banquet on Saturday, 18 November. Invites will be out soon.

Racers and Race Committee,
Thanks to all those dedicated sailors and volunteers who came out in less than ideal conditions to join us for Race #4 of the Fall Series! After the bounce of last week, we had flat seas, but plenty of wind and rain and then the fog came in! We appreciate your dedication!!
See you out on the water next week for the last race of the season. Fingers crossed for good weather!

JYC Racers,
Thanks for sticking it out with the Race Committee today as we did our best to give you a Sunday race despite the fluky breeze, commercial traffic, threatening fog and threatening thunderstorms.
It was a first for RC to both change a course for one fleet and shorten the course, but we thought it best with the storm front threatening from the southwest.
Reminder for future: please have your radios on throughout the race as RC may contact you.
Hopefully, you all made it off the water safely and are watching the Patriots play now!
See you on the water next Sunday!
