This Past Week’s Events:
ABYC Sailors stormed San Diego this weekend, taking home some hardware at the SDYC Olympic Classes Regatta! All five of our sailors sailed an incredible weekend with Taft Buckley and Erik Hou placing Second and Third respectively. Congratulations to all of these young men for all of the effort, time, and work they put into making this weekend rock! Not to be outdone, the rest of our Juniors had very busy weekend here at home. The weekend kicked off Saturday with Learn to Sail, Lime Green, Green Fleet, and Champ Fleet Optis sailing in and around the bay and harbor. The Champ Fleet got to experience some big swell out in the harbor, as they prepare for their first upcoming Carrie Series Optimist Regatta!
This Upcoming Week:
It all continues for our Fleets, as LB Sato High School and McBride High School suit up for the cold weather in Monterey Bay at the Sea Otter PCISA Regatta. This is the first "Big 5" regatta for them, so it is sure to be a learning experience! Our Lasers don't stop! This weekend they have a clinic to practice all of the things they realized they needed to practice at last weekend's regatta! Our third week of Learn to Sail and Lime Green is ready to rock and roll on Saturday.
Come on down, watch your Junior go rip around the bay, and maybe check out the new bar while you're at it!
Events On the Horizon:
ABYC's Annual Halloween Regatta is coming up, please make sure you register early, this is one of the best regattas for all of our new sailors in the Green Fleet to participate in! As a one-day event, this Regatta will be a total blast.
