EYC sailors actively represent the club at local, regional, national and international team racing events. During the summer, Thursday night is team racing night at the club with practices and the Harbor Challenge Series. Team Race Thursday nights feature coaching and debriefings facilitated by EYC Sailing Director Greg Wilkinson. This is a great forum to learn the basics of team racing, one of the most exciting sailing formats. EYC actively seeks and regularly receives invitations to major team racing events such as the Lynn Cup, the Jackson Cup, the Hinman Masters and Hinman Championships.
Harbor Challenge 2009
Harbor Challenge is open to all EYC members and features a weekly team race series against Boston and Corinthian Yacht Clubs. Racing is every Thursday evening, July 2 through August 20 (no racing during Marblehead Race Week) and begins at 6pm. Sign up by emailing Greg Wilkinson. Immediately following racing, an informal debrief, complete with video footage and refreshments, is held for all participants in the Barker Room.
