Centennial Team Race

To celebrate the Centennial of HYC we will be holding a Team Race on Saturday July 11, 2009.
You are invited form teams comprising of any 3 keelboats and to register with the Race Committeevia the Club office or e-mail sailing@hudsonyachtclub.com.
As an added twist the race will be a pursuit race and there will be rolling start signal sequence for all competing keel boats. The start times are calculated based on each type of boats handicap so that in theory we will all finish at the same time!
The scheduled time of the warning signal for the race is 13:25, with the 1st boats starting at 13:30.
The start / finish line will be from the mast on the Webb Pier thus enabling our members on shore to view the race proceedings.
So form a team with your class mates or friends and join in the race of the century!

The Class flags and scheduled start times for each class will be:
Prizes shall be given to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd placed teams .
Copies of the full SI’s are available at the Club.
Should the Centennial Celebrations be postponed the race will be run on Sunday July 12, 2009
