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.
