Looking for your Registration

Have you had a chance to register yet? We have several registrations from people who attended the Skippers Meeting and a few more, but no huge ground swell yet.

Remember that you can send your registration and $50 to:
St Michaels Wednesday Night Racing
215 S Hanson St
Easton, MD 21601

Or you can give your registration to us on the Race Committee boat.

You have three weeks to register, or we will stop scoring you. Be sure to get registered in time!

If you need the forms again, here is the Star Registration and here is the PHRF Registration.

2010 Sailing Instructions

The 2010 Sailing Instructions are ready to go! If you're going to the Skipper's Meeting tonight, you can pick up a copy from us. If you can't make it, you can get a copy of the Sailing Instructions by clicking here:

New stuff to note:

We are taking off two Wednesday evenings this year. We will not race on July 7th, or on September 8th. These two days off correspond with federal holidays on the Monday before, so enjoy your time off and plan a vacation!

Also this year, we are starting a new "Cruising" boat subdivision of the PHRF B class. If you race 1/3rd or more series races without a spinnaker, you qualify as cruising and can be scored twice!

As usual, we'll have more info later.

Charts and more

Where am I going? What do those flags mean? What was that horn?

All excellent questions that can be answered by going to the Skipper's Meeting this coming Wednesday, 6 pm, April 21st, at the Miles River Yacht Club. Not only will I answer those questions, but I'll give you a spiffy laminated course sheet and a cheat sheet for what the flags and sounds mean on the Committee Boat!

If you want to print your own, click here to get your copy of the
Reference Sheet

Besides handing out course sheets and registering boats, we'll talk about the Sailing Instructions! There are at least two new things for this year; all very exciting. Will you be eligible for a new award?

And you don't have to be a skipper to attend. Is your skipper too busy to make it? Come to the meeting for your skipper and be the person in the know.

It's a Burgee

We have an official burgee now. Who would have thought that you could show you love of sailing on Wednesday nights by simply flying a burgee, but it's true! Now you can be the talk of your next raft-up by displaying a burgee no one else has seen.

We will be taking orders at the Skipper's meeting on April 21st, but you can order them now for only $20. Here is an order from, or you can pick one up at the meeting. $20 is a good deal for a burgee!

You didn't forget the meeting did you? MRYC at 6pm on April 21st. See you there!
