Club Series Races (All races are weather dependent.  Registration required)

Each monthly series will have at least three weekend days of racing, with 3-4 races every Saturday with one series for Sunfish and one series for Flying Scot/Open fleet.

This schedule may be adjusted during the season, and changes will be reflected here.

Sail the Bay (Pursuit Race) Sundays June 9, June 23 & July 7

This is a casual event that follows 6 or 7 legs across a course that will take sailors to different points from the north end to south end of Rehoboth Bay and back again. The event is open to all types of sailboats and abilities. Boats will be loosely organized into several ‘fleets’ based on their speed rating. Start times for each fleet will be staggered, starting with the slowest boats first and ending with the fastest boats last. The first boat to finish in each ‘fleet’ wins first place for that fleet. Rules will be kept simple and competition will be light hearted. Skippers Meeting starts at 11:00 am.

On Sail the Bay (Pursuit Race) Days the fleet will be sticking around after sailing, firing up the grill for a Bring Your Own Barbeque social.  All sailors are welcome to join in. COURSE INFO HERE.  For more details email Bill Colgan at hobie106@verizon.net
