Dear WSA-OC Member,

Sail trim is an integral part of racing. Here's our Commodore, Valerie Rhodes, looking up and trimming the jib, during a Thursday afternoon FARKLE race.

During our regatta you will participate/compete in an actual regatta with skippers, who have many years of PHRF race experience. Prior to heading out on-the-water, you will participate in a Skippers Meeting, in which you will receive instructions for the race - this meeting is typical of most races/regattas, as well as lunch. Once you get on the boats you will have, two practice starts, one or two short windward/leeward buoy races and a race based on each boat's official PHRF rating. Afterwards the trophies will be awarded!
Preregistration and WSA-OC membership is required in order to participate. A
s with all of our on-the-water events, space is limited, so
register now! If you need to
renew your membership, now is the perfect time!
