BYC hosts the Portsmouth Follys this Weekend, December 13.
This upcoming weekend (December 6th and 7th) BYC will host the Sunkist Series #2 and NHYC will host the Winter Series #2, which is a High Point Event.
If you did not purchase your tickets in time we hope to see you next year! You will be missed.
The Fleet 1 approved sail purchase window is October 1st to November 30th, 2014. This is your only opportunity to buy new sails until after the 2015 Championships!
According to the Class bylaws:
III.H.8. For a Class Yacht, the Owner may purchase one jib sail in each calendar year and one main sail in every second calendar year.
After purchase, the Fleet 1 Measurer will inspect, measure and sign the sail before it may be used.
According to the Fleet 1 bylaws:
III.C.7. The Fleet has appointed Elliott/Pattison Sailmakers as its sole permitted sail maker for new mainsails, and Ullman Sails as its sole permitted sail maker for new jibs. No other sail/sail maker combinations will be allowed.
The cost of a new mail sail from Elliott/Pattison Sailmakers is $1,594. They are offering a 20% discount to Fleet 1 members: $$1275.20. They can be reached at 949 645-6697.
Ullman Sails is offering the jib sail at $774 with 10% discounts available for 100% deposits. Download their flyer here. Ullman Sails can be reached at 714-432-1860
If you are buying a new Mainsail, consider donating your old one to NHYC for possible use in the Baldwin Cup team races.
