Join Race Committee and help administer our Wednesday night (Beer Can) races. No Experience Needed! The Race Committee in sailing is responsible for managing the races, ensuring fairness, safety, and a fun experience for all participants. This includes setting the race course, starting and finishing the races, adjusting the course as needed, and ensuring the safety of the competitors and the Race Committee itself. They also record finish times, potentially abandon races due to weather, and handle protests. JPYC's beer can races are a low-key, intramural club racing series for anyone interested in sailboat racing. There will be both a Jib and Main (JAM) and spinnaker section. The first start is at 7:00 pm and most races will be completed by 9:00pm. Be sure to grab a meal in the galley before heading out to race. This year, the Sea Scouts will be managing the galley service and the proceeds will go to the repairs for the Ed Stein. We will announce the results as soon as possible after the race. The food, drinks, and enthusiastic sailors result in lots of great conversation and fun!
