The Sailpast Cup Race at 12pm, open to all KYC fleets, where a winner will be scored by handicap.

The KYC fleet will assemble at 11:00 am for the Skippers’ meeting, held by the Commodore’s vessel.
Detailed instructions for the Sailpast course and order of the fleet will be given at the Skippers’ Meeting.

Every effort will be made to sail in line-ahead formation, on a beam reach, with the order of the fleet arranged by faster vessels being grouped ahead of slower vessels.

Sailors may salute the Commodore’s vessel by luffing their jibs for five seconds, then sheeting in and clearing the area for the following boat.

Paddlers may salute by hand or with a nod.

When all boats have saluted and the Commodore’s vessel, the fleet will return to the KYC Clubhouse, to enjoy tea and biscuits and an assortment of snacks.

Note that there will be a ebb tide for the event, with an 4 foot low tide at 5:40 pm at Point Atkinson.


We look forward to seeing you at the club.
