Offshore ZOOM call

Bob Fleck on

Offshore Racing

On Wednesday Dec 15 at 6:00pm there will be a ZOOM "Happy Hour' call to discuss the current state, plans and future of FBYC offshore racing. It is open to all concerned. I'll be sending out the meeting link to offshore skippers. They can share it with their crew or anyone they think would want to participate. Contact Bob Fleck if you are not an offshore skipper, and would like to participate.

We'll be talking about where we are today, plans for next year and how we want to change the game to attract new boats and crew. 

Join us for a light ( and hopefully productive) get together.

The results for the 2021 FBYC ILCA series have been posted. The season-long series consists of 5 days of racing with Spring, Summer 1 & 2, Fall and Frostbite Regattas. With one day (Frostbite) canceled due to weather the standard fleet sailed 19 races with 21 boats taking part in a race. 5 boats qualified for the series by sailing at least 50% of the races.

Final standings:

  1. James Jacob
  2. Jon Deutsch
  3. Michael Colbert
  4. Britt Drake
  5. Holly Sears

The complete scores can be found here.

We only had a separate fleet of Radials in one event so no series award for Radials this year.
