Racing Information

Welcome to the LCSA racing section! We do our thing on Thursday nights, and we are a bit different, completely nontraditional, hey our starting sequence is weird and we like it that way, horns, no flags, and maybe a random siren? But if you want to have fun and try to beat the guy in front of you with the faster boat, you are in the right place!

 It was a very successful 2021 racing season for our club!  I was really impressed with the willingness of our club members to help out with committee boat duty and in short "do their part".  There were some very close races, and some good stories, not the least of which was when Bob Lenhart pulled Triquetra into Harbor Town to hide from a 31 kt wind storm!  Looks like the Racing Chair called that one wrong, but hey it was a "pop up" storm!

The Horn Sequence:

1 blast of 2 to 3 seconds at 5 minutes before start.
1 short blast at 3 min
1 short blast at 1 min
1 long blast at START 

 The  course will be one lap around the southern mark, taking the mark to the  boat's port side, then back through the start line to finish one lap.   The start and finish line will be near the lighthouse. 

See You out there in 2022!

Crewing (assisting) racers is one of the best ways to sharpen your sailing skills!  If you want to crew, you can show up at Pier 4 at Seven Coves parking lot between about 4:45 and 5:00 Thursdays in August and you can hitch a ride with one of our racers!

However, to ensure that everyone has a berth, please click the Committee Boat/Crew disclaimer link (at left) to sign up.  This will bring you to a spreadsheet where you can sign up.

Committee boat info

The committee boat this year will be on Pier 4, slip 35, of Seven Covers Marina

  

Those that plan on racing should also plan on being available to volunteer on the committee boat at least once a month, either as driver or helper. A minimum of 2 people is required to set marks and run the races. Plus hey this is fun to float around and sound the horns (and or siren)!

 Our experienced drivers are John Davis, John Moulds, Victor Scammel, Anna Mode, Bob Lenhart, Jim Hall, Brad Ballard, Bill Worsham, Gerrit Rickwalt, Josh Terry, Dick Morton,  and Andy Truscott, Dave Hopkins, and as others help with races they will become drivers.


PLEASE sign up on the open database entitled “Committee Boat Sign-Up” panel directly above this. The committee boat drivers have the last minute authority on canceling a race due to weather conditions. 

Arrive between 4:00 and 4:15 PM (underway no later than 4:30pm) for a 5:30 PM race start!!

If you have questions, email the race coordinator (Gerrit Rickwalt) at lcsaracing@gmail.com
