Registration is now open to race in the annual Houston Yacht Club Turkey Day Regatta Saturday and Sunday, Nov. 18-19. The regatta is open to all boats and classes for racing Windward-Leeward or Pursuit. Prizes are turkeys. The number will be based on the number of registrants per class. Our annual “Grog” party will follow racing on Saturday.
As part of the Competitors’ Briefing on Friday, Nov. 17, all racers are invited to attend a presentation by HYC Member and Laser Radial Youth Women’s World Champion, Charlotte Rose, who will share her on-the-water racing experiences and upcoming 2017 Youth Sailing World Championship in China later this year. She has been nominated for the 2017 Rolex Yachtswoman of the Year.
The awards ceremony on Sunday, Nov. 20 will feature our chef serving up turkey and trimmings for the racers at the trophy presentation.
See the HYC Web Site for the Notice of Race for the schedule of events. Boats may enter the Regatta through Regatta Network.
