2008 TUESDAY RACING - NEW STUFF
BCYA will field a non-spinnaker class on Tuesday nights in 2008. This fleet will have a course set to maximize the fun (i.e. more reaching legs), will be scored separately, and will start five minutes after the PHRF B fleet.

To attract boats new to the BCYA, the only charge will be $75.00 for the skipper to join the club (we hope other crew might join, too).

Pass the word!

Click here to register for the PHRF N non-spinnaker fleet.


ARE YOU NEW TO RACING?
Particularly for those joining the PHRF N non-spinnaker fleet on Tuesday nights, the BCYA is especially interested in making your learning curve as gentle as possible.

The club has approximately 20 yachts and more than 70 members and is a member of the Chesapeake Bay Yacht Racing Association (CBYRA). We sponsor the Tuesday evening summer racing series in Baltimore Harbor, as well as two of the major CBYRA Saturday race events. New members are always welcome.
