  Based on a survey sent to all skippers who sailed a buoy race this year, the new date for the Vicki Cup Buoy Race will be Sun, Nov 2.

  The Vicki Cup Buoy Race is a 1-day around-the-buoys racing format.  Trophies are awarded to winning cabin boat and the winning dinghy based on corrected time (handicap).   Racers will meet at 12noon.

  2025 Buoy Race Sailing Instructions

  A few changes are required to our racing program this year.

  1) Registration in advance is necessary if you plan to race. All CLSA members in good standing are allowed to skipper in CLSA club races. Members, please log in to select the 'Skipper' option. Guest Skipper Registration is available for prospective, new members. Please email the membership chair (clsamembership@gmail.com) to receive a guest entry code.

  2) The CLSA Race Notices will be the official notice board for the event. Signals made ashore will leverage electronic notifications to registered participants.

  3) Because of limitations with boats launching from multiple locations, there is no planned competitor's briefing prior to the race.

  4) Sailing Instructions will be posted in this event and the Notice Board when finalized. Any additional information to be conveyed by the Race Committee Chair or PRO will also be posted on the Notice Board and broadcast in a reminder email, typically the evening before the event. Changes will be announced on the water via VHF 68.

  Course

  We will race a leeward start course.
