JYC Summer & Fall Series racing updates

Dear Racers,

For our summer series, we will be shifting back to 4 starts from 5 while still scoring 5 classes, per JYC Race Book Sailing Instructions paragraph 2.6.1 and Summer Series Addendum paragraph 4.3.1. Classes C and D will share a start. Please look for both class flags to fly on the high staffs at the cabin with the prep flag to fly off the stern of the RC boat for that starting sequencing.

This will allow us to have reasonable length courses for all classes as the daylight reduces throughout the series.

JYC Race Book Notice of Race paragraph 1.11.1.c, JYC Qualifiers, is updated as follows:

“JYC Qualifiers: JYC Member-Racer boats that participate in the JYC Cruise Week at the same time as a Summer Series Race shall get a qualifier for that week’s race. Any JYC Member-Racer skippers that participate in a yacht club team race supporting the JYC at the same time as one of the JYC races shall get a qualifier for that race (if their boat does not race in the JYC race). JYC Qualifiers: JYC Member-Racer boats that participate in the JYC Cruise Week at the same time as a Summer Series Race shall get a qualifier for that week’s race. Any JYC Member-Racer skippers that participate in a yacht club team race supporting the JYC at the same time as one of the JYC races shall get a qualifier for that race (if their boat does not race in the JYC race). JYC boats that participate in the 9/11 Sail For Hope shall get a qualifier for that race (if their boat does not race in the JYC 2nd Fall series race).”
