Transportation

This year we’re adding a bus from TYC on Friday after awards. What does this mean? It means you can move your boat on its bottom Friday morning, race, and get back to  your vehicle that your leave on the south shore. We’re still running the bus on Saturday morning. We hope this makes logistics easier for a number of sailors.

 

Friday, 2000 hrs, from TYC to SYC

Saturday, 0730 hrs, from SYC to TYC

 

Friday Luncheon

On Friday during racing TYC will be hosting a luncheon for the ladies. Things kick off at 1pm with free food and a cash bar. Don’t let the skippers and crew have all the fun!
