Carl Anderson Memorial (CAM) Series Starts Sunday

The CAM Series starts this Sunday (September 29th) and runs for the next seven Sundays.  There will be fleets for spinnaker boats, non-spinnaker boats and Cal 20's.  Check the schedule as not all classes will be competing every week.  There will be five races for each fleet and a skipper must compete in three of the races for that fleet to qualify for the overall.  The overall series results will be based on the best four scores for a skipper. The documents (NOR and SI) are posted under the Club Race Tab.  Electronic Registration is open in the same spot.

This Sunday the spinnaker and non-spinnaker fleets will be competing.

See you on the water.

Charity Regatta Cruising Class

The 27th annual Yacht Clubs of Long Beach Charity Regatta benefiting The Children's Clinic of Long Beach is September 22, 2013.

Shoreline Yacht Club is hosting the cruising class.  We are looking for boats that don't normally race to come out and have a little fun and 100% of the proceeds go to a good cause.  We've got an easy course laid out, and some big cruising boats that have already signed up to race!  If you know anybody who hasn't gotten their boat out of the slip in a while, this is a great opportunity for them! You don't have to be a member of a yacht club or have a PHRF certificate to participate!   All the racing docs are online, including electronic entry and a crew wanted/crew needed list signup sheet.  Check it out on the PHRF tab.

Cal 20 Fever

This past weekend saw Cal 20 Fever hit Shoreline Yacht Club in a big way.  Two fleets raced: Fleet A competed in three races Saturday dominated by heavy fog and the competitors trying to find the marks and the finish line and Fleet B on Sunday dominated by heavier wind.

Congratulations to the Fleet Winners:

Fleet A (Saturday )- Mike Schachter
Fleet B (Sunday) - Warren Wolfe

Complete results will be posted under the Cal 20 Fleet tab as soon as possible.

Long Beach to Dana Point

On Saturday, August 31^st, SYC will host the 30^th annual Long Beach to Dana Point Race in conjunction with our partners Dana Point Yacht Club and Dana West Yacht Club.  For the past several years we have had 50 – 70 boats participate in one of the fleets as they race down the coast (hopefully keeping it to port) to Dana Point and the hospitality of DPYC and DWYC.  

Come out Friday night and visit with the sailors that have brought their boats into Shoreline from other areas for the race.  On Saturday morning, Joanie Asher and her tireless crew of volunteers have a great send-off breakfast planned for the racers and anyone else that wants to come out and enjoy the food.

Dana West Yacht Club has a great after race party planned for Saturday night.  The awards presentation will be at Dana Point Yacht Club on Sunday at noon.  Come out and have a Bloody Mary to start the day and stay for the awards.

My thanks to the many volunteers that it takes to make an event like this work – as always, SYC, DPYC and DWYC members step up when needed!
