CIYC Racing Team Florida Trip
The CIYC Racing Team duo Hayden van Zandt and Ocean Timmins spent last week with head coach Leopold Brandl in Jensen Beach, Florida. They started their preparation for the season and competed in the C420 Midwinter Championships – a highly competitive regatta with only the best sailors from all around the country. Both of them improved their technique and teamwork greatly and can’t wait for the season in New York to start.

Electronic Navigation Workshop
Saturday morning seminar!
March 4 @ 9:00 am – 1:00 pm
The CIYC Cruising Committee will present a course on electronic navigation using the OpenCPN software.

The course leaders will be available prior to the class to help with the installation and configuration of OpenCPN.

The Sayers is not just for serious racers. This is a chance for cruisers to show just how good they are, too! No spinnakers, no spinnaker poles, no whisker poles. No reachers, bloopers, whoppers, or anything else that doesn’t attach to your headstay. It’s a pursuit start. The time your boat starts is determined by your rating. Slower boats start first. Faster boats start later. Everybody finishes together. No drama! No crunching, as seen at the starts of other races!
If you have a PHRF Rating, you are all set. If you don’t have a PHRF Rating, please contact Rich Coar. He will establish a rating for your boat. Email or call: or 917.370.7938.
We hope to see you out there!
- 9 AM: complimentary bagels, donuts and coffee; Scratch Sheets including your individual start time will be available on the porch
