It’s Race Day!

Boat Classes

All boat classes are welcome. We have active Mirrors, Lasers, Fireballs, Tasars, 420s, 29ers and RS 400/ Zest/ Feva/ Vision/ Quest boats which make regular appearances at our events. We use the RYA Portsmouth Yardstick handicapping system to level the playing field. PY numbers for HSC boats are listed at the bottom of this page, which are taken from the GL site here. For any questions related to club racing, send an email to the Fleet Captain.

Race Committee

We run races from inflatable boats equipped with all the flags, horns and safety gear needed to properly officiate. If you would like to be on a race committee, please let the Fleet Captain know.

Rules

HSC follows the Racing Rules of Sailing. However, the atmosphere is relaxed. Here is a racing rules primer for beginners in an easy-to-read format. Sailors come out to have fun in these friendly competitions and help each other figure out who broke what rule when. Hollyburn members are more than willing to help new racers learn the rules and tactics.
