About Club Racing
Interest in racing yachts dates back to the very first days of sail. Any two boats on the same heading will usually envoke a competitive spirit. Competition is everywhere around us and that holds true for the water also. Racing sailboats can provide many benefits to the sailor. It challenges each person to hone their skills and become more keenly aware of all things that can help improve the performance and control of the sailboat. It provides a stimulating playground where sailors match tactics and make decisions that enivitably effect the race results. Most important it fosters a spirit of teamwork and camaraderie amongs sailors. Participating in sailboat racing will make you a better sailor!
