Harbor 20 Class Association

EVERYONE WELCOME – H20, other one designs, PHRF sailors

Whether you are just learning the racing rules or are already an expert racer, this seminar will improve and update your understanding of the complex rules of our sport. This course covers all the rules which govern the behavior of boats in close proximity when starting, meeting, encountering obstructions, rounding marks, and finishing. Animated PowerPoint, whiteboards with magnetic boats, and videos bring the rules to life! Includes continental breakfast, lunch, course materials., and a raffle ticket. Great for skipper and crew because more heads are better than one!

You will notice that there is an option to order a course book printed in color. As there is always a right-of-way boat and a keep clear boat for every pair, and because the right-of-way can change instantaneously, and the right-of way boat may be “limited” in some way, or may need to give mark-room or room at an obstruction, and sometimes a boat racing is an obstruction to other boats that are racing, showing these in different colors really helps make the examples clear. And they are quite stunning! They are also very expensive which is why they are offered as an option.

Companion on-the-water clinic:

Classroom learning is one thing, but putting the knowledge into practice on the water is another. As it is not possible to combine the the classroom learning for this subject with on-the-water experience in a single day, we are offering a companion on-the-water clinic for this seminar a week later on Sunday, January 25, at LIYC. The format will be practice racing in close quarters that puts a premium on knowing the rules with an experienced mentor aboard each boat. If you will be attending the seminar, we hope you will also attend the clinic. Bring your own boat or request a spot on a boat. To register click here.  

The 2026 education schedule is composed of classroom setting seminars and on-the-water clinics with experienced mentors aboard. It is targeted at those who are learning how to race a sailboat, and those who are already racers but would like to improve their skills.

Sailors who consistently finish well know a lot of stuff! To be competitive requires a good understanding of knowledge associated with three different topics, which are large enough and different enough as to be learned independently but must then be applied together on the water:

Many books have been written on each of these topics. Because of the amount of information, a classroom setting is ideal, as it is difficult to learn it on the water. But, having absorbed information in the classroom, your learning curve when on the water is turbo-charged!

Each of the following events with the exception of one are all=day events. There are three all-day seminars covering the topics listed above. Each seminar is followed shortly thereafter by a companion on-the-water clinic intended to let you put the knowledge you learned in the classroom into practice on the water with an experienced mentor aboard . While attendance of the seminars is not mandatory for attendance if the clinics, the best learning experience is enjoyed by attending both. In addition, there are two on-the-water clinics on “General Topics” that are not companions to seminars, where the topics will be chosen by the host and any additional presenters the host invites.

2026 Education Schedule

The half-day “Rules Around the Race Course” is scheduled for mid-May and is targeted at summer evening racers.

Click the “Register” links above to register for any of these events. Why not give the gift of knowledge for Christmas? The information conveyed is equally useful for skippers and crews! In fact, on the most competitive boats, crews are as knowledgeable as the skipper – sometimes even more so…

We hope to see you there!
