A fun turnout of seven boats, we could race normally without being focused on distancing as guidelines were relaxed today. Bob Boutilier was the big winner, but everyone had fun anyway.
In keeping with the ordinance of physical distancing, it is in the best interest of all our members and for our own personal safety that we abide by the rules and postpone getting together until the all-clear is given and we are safe to resume activities.
In the meantime, we can be hopeful that this will end soon and for now take some time to enjoy getting our boats prepared for fun-filled days ahead.
We will keep you updated on information as it becomes available and a new start date for the opening regatta.
Stay safe everyone!

Three intrepid EC12 sailors from HAMYC set off for Bethany Ct on Thursday to sail in the Housatonic Model Yacht Club first annual EC12 Fall Classic regatta on the weekend of October 13 & 14, 2018
What a beautiful location and a great bunch of people! The wind was not as cooperative as we may have hoped and it was a real challenge all weekend. Weather aside we were well cared for and had a great time. The Regatta was sailed as one fleet of 13 boats and we sailed 27 races over two days.
Thanks to Don Ouimette who organized and won the regatta and RD Fred Goebel and his crew of volunteers.
