Wednesday Non Spinnaker Series Looking for Smaller or Slower Cruising Boats
Wednesday racing at Middle Harbour Yacht Club is one of Sydney’s best kept secrets in Sydney Harbour. Whilst we have quite a big fleet, we are looking for smaller or slower cruising type boats to form a Division 3.
The Wednesday Sailing Instructions have already been modified to incorporate this division, with shorter course ranging from 6.6nm to 12nm for more windy days.
Racing occurs all year round, except for Public Holidays, race start is at 1pm in Winter and 1:30pm in Summer off the clubhouse. A very sociable group turns up each week to participate in this more relaxed, fun series.
There are prizes each week for each division and our handicap system ensures that during a series everyone is a winner. Very shortly we will begin our sausage sizzle, meat raffle and yachting quiz, after we beat this COVID nuisance. The money that we raise from the raffle goes towards our huge end of year Seafood Extravaganza which is always a great hit.
So if you would love to break up your week and come racing with us, please let the sailing office know and we will help you get started. Remember, Wednesday racing is all about getting out on the water with great mates and enjoying our beautiful Harbour.
