Small Boat Regatta

On June 9 2018, CYC will organize a sailing regatta that’s fun for every sailor (experienced or not) using any type of (dinghy) sailboat. Using the Portsmouth Yardstick system, each boat is assigned a handicap number and can race against one other using time measurements.

What can you expect:

• A day filled with fun sailing regatta’s for young and old for experienced and inexperienced sailors.

• If you do not own a boat or don’t know how to sail, please call and we will try to match you up with one of our Club members.

• For the inexperienced sailors, there will be a short introduction to regatta sailing to go over the basic rules.
