Dinghy Team Racing, BYO Vanguard 15
Wednesday Evening Team Racing in BYO V-15s is a "pick up" series - no need to show up with a full team, just bring your boat and your crew to the EYC dry-sailing area at 5:00! The 2010 series was a huge success with high level team racing that included former World Champions, the reigning V-15 National Champions, college sailors, high school sailors - and plenty of spectators! Guest boat storage is available at EYC if you plan on sailing regularly - contact Greg Wilkinson for more information.
The second annual Marblehead Team Race will be sailed on June 18-19 in Vanguard 15s. The innaugural event in 2010 was a success, attracting four teams sailing thirty six races on a beautiful June weekend.
Keel Boat Team Racing, Harbor Challenge 2011
Harbor Challenge is open to all EYC members and features a weekly team race series in Sonars against Boston and Corinthian Yacht Clubs. Racing is every Thursday evening, June 19 through August 28 (no racing during Marblehead Race Week) and begins with a team meeting on the Pleon dock at 5:30pm. Sign up weekly 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.
Commodores' Cup 2011
The Boston YC will host this year's Commodores' Cup. The event is sailed in Sonars, 3-on-3, with one team each from the Boston, Corinthian and Eastern Yacht Clubs. At least one Flag Officer from each club is required to sail for his/her team. This year's event will begin with a noon time Competitors' Meeting, a first race at 1:00, and racing should conclude just before 5pm. Racing will be followed by a reception at the Eastern and the Awards Ceremony - where the burgee of the winning Yacht Club team will be hoisted from the BYC flagpole and flown until colors that day.
Halloween Team Race
EYC will host the second annual Halloween Team Race on October 29-30. The 2010 was a huge success, attracting five top teams. With full colored sails and racing right off the docks of the EYC, this event is not to be missed.
