    AUSTIN YACHT CLUB TELLTALE October 2020 AYC October Surprise – Fall Fling Fleet Regatta FEATURED: J 80 Fleet J80s upwind, October 2020 informal race, skippers left to right: David Wahlberg, Mark Foster, Terry Schertz Photo by Bill Records Message from the Commodore How to Be a Part of the Process Recently some members have questioned how to bring their ideas for and concerns about the Club to the attention of the Board of Directors. How do they gain insight into how decisions are made and how priorities are set? The individual Commanders (Harbor, Race, Buildings & Grounds, Sail Training) and their committees are the first line of access to the Board for issues/ideas that fall within their purview. Operational issues about the day to day workings of the Club or facilities should be brought to the attention of the General Manager and the Commodore. The Vice Commodore is the contact for AYC regattas. The Secretary is the contact for the Directory and Website and the Past Commodore is the contact for Membership issues. For large projects that may take a few years to put aside the necessary funding, the Long Range Planning Committee is involved. Please engage with the appropriate Commander or group if you have an idea for the Club or if you have a concern. Please remember that the Commanders are all volunteers, it may take them a few days to get back to you. The Commanders will assess and address issues that can be dealt with in the short term. For items that require expenditures over $1,500 or are a capital improvement and add assets to the Club, Board approval is required.

    Folsom Lake Yacht Club June/July 2021 THE TELLTALE SMOOTH SAILING SINCE 1956 Commodore's Corner - Kerry Johnson Unmask and Sail! Yea! According to news reports, California is easing most Covid-19 restrictions. The State is supposedly keeping the mask mandate, but the CDC says that if vaccinated you can go maskless in small gatherings. We are very close to getting back to “normal" and that means we can start having in-person club social functions, like member meetings, BBQs and … Cup Boat Races? By now, you received an email from me regarding a new race series expanding on the annual Cup Boat Regatta, which is normally held in August. For those unfamiliar with Cup Boat Racing, it's a social event in which competitors build boats out of one Styrofoam cup, straws, tape, mylar sails and pennies for ballast. The Folsom Lake Yacht Club 1 Folsom Lake Yacht Club June/July 2021 boats are then raced in the host’s pool using shop fans for wind. Racing starts after everyone enjoys socializing and a BBQ. It is a great family event. Considering that club racing has been swamped by pandemic restrictions and low water, after some discussion with board members, I figured now's the time to raise a first shape on socializing again. It's long overdue and considering so many of us are vaccinated or now drilled to wear masks if not, let's hold a sailing-oriented social event that gets us together in person. So, the Cup Boat Regatta is expanding from one to three races with additional poolside gatherings planned for June and July.

The COVID-19 pandemic brought many changes to BYC racing during the summer of 2020. Racing began in the summer with smaller fleets, although the less competitive nature of the racing did bring out a number of boats new to BYC racing.! Many of the Buzzard’s Bay Trophy races were cancelled in 2020, although BYC was able to run the Parker Converse Tower race and the Hurricane Cup. BYC was finally able to start organized Series Racing again on July 9th. During the summer of 2020 BYC was able to hold over 90 races, run by 87 BYC volunteer Race Officers. The Race Committee did not score races in 2020 because of all the uncertainties related to COVID-19, but participants were recorded. Additionally, BYC’s Fall Racing series from September 13, 2020 to October 11, 2020 was highly successful, attracting more than the regular number of BYC participants. The BYC Race Committee has been hard at work this fall and winter planning a full schedule of races for the summer of 2021 as well as preparing contingencies for the possibility of continuing to only be allowed to race under some form of Commonwealth or local Guidelines.
