A Bigger Cranberry Pond for 2019

The wonderful folks at Terra Beatta have expanded the pond and have extended their hospitality for another season of model sailing for the Halifax Area Model Yacht Club.

Ben and Victor have the docks installed and the pond is set for racing. The cranberry pond makes a great location for sailing and the first regatta scheduled for the site is the Bill Traill Regatta on June 9, 2019.

Victor has sent along some pictures that show most of the expanded pond, but could not capture the whole size!

Soling 1M Racing Results April 14, 2019

Today was the first day racing for 2019, and the first day ever for a few of our newest members.
It takes a little time to learn how to make a Soling go, learn the adjustments and then compete. The HAMYC is a great place to learn, so don’t let the learning curve get you down. For beginners, you can start with 20 seconds left on the countdown until you win a race. After your first win you can start with 10 seconds left in the countdown. When you win a second race you are starting with the fleet!
