There is no cost to participate, but teams may be charged for equipment lost at sea.  So please take care of our MWR assets.

Sailing Instructions (SI) will be provided or verbally disclosed at the competitors' meeting just prior to the race committee leaving the docks at 1545.

Racing will be scored using the low point system, and will be governed by the 2009-2012 US Sailing Racing Rules of Sailing RRS.

Racing Practice

Intramural participants may use the Flying Scots for practice one day during the week of a scheduled race FOR FREE.  Advanced sailing and racing instruction can also be scheduled during this time. To schedule advanced instruction contact rcsail@navyjaxyachtclub.com.
 

Since this is an Intramural program through MWR for active and reserve Military, trophies earned will be presented to the commands represented by the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place victors.  Also, Intramural participants will have first consideration for competitions such as the Read Cup and "All Navy" events.
