Let’s examine at your excuses, one by one… ‘I don’t know if I would enjoy it’. Trust me, you will. Racing is a riot. It involves teamwork. It is exciting. It is challenging. It is social. You work with other people. You’ll make new friends. It is a matter of connecting with the right fleet and the right boat. Believe me, exchanging ‘high fives’ after a good race is a real thrill. We, the officers, ‘I am a beginner. I don’t want to let the team down by making a "Pledge Our Allegiance" mistake’. Name a sailor who didn’t start as a beginner. Almost any racing boat can use a novice to provide weight and help out. You will on the 4th of July be given assignments commensurate with your level of experience. Your participation will be appreciated. L to R: Jean Ann Davis, Secretary; Manny Pacin, Rear Commodore, and ‘I don’t have the budget’.

  • PHRF Handicapping for Fun Races, the Frostbite Race, and Summer Races
    WLSC TOD PHRF Handicapping for Fun Races, the Frostbite Race, and Summer Races Sections: -Introduction -PHRF TOD -Some Typical Race Courses Introduction: It is very difficult to conduct a totally equitable race with such a diverse group of boats and people as that found at Watauga Lake. We employ two different handicapping systems in an attempt to address these inequities: Club and PHRF. (Disclaimer) No handicapping system is totally fair. However, we have chosen these somewhat imperfect ones while we continue to struggle for an unrealistic goal of perfection. The WLSC Club system (developed by John Middaugh) includes both the sailboat and the crew in the handicap. We employ this approach to create a competitive atmosphere for those that might not necessarily desire to spend a lot of time and money improving their boat. However, as the boat and crew improves, their handicap is increased over time. Any sailboat can compete in this racing series if they have either a Portsmouth or PHRF rating. This system is describe in a separate document entitled “WLSC Club Handicapping and Scoring for Fall and Spring Race Series. The PHRF system is based only on the sailboat. Thus, the system attempts to factor out crew and boat preparation. The approach assumes that the boat is crewed by a very competent crew and with a boat in excellent condition. A PHRF is calculated from Thus, if one does not maintain their boat (sails, hardware, bottom) well and exert a significant effort in crew training, it will be somewhat difficult to consistently finish high in the PHRF race series.

    OLYMPIA YACHT CLUB March 2015 Commodore Commodore Myra Downing Captain Joe Downing S/V Balder II ello…. Fellow Boaters. H As many of you know, I was recently interviewed by Dick Pust and it was aired on his radio pro- gram. In the interview, I expressed that OYC is part of the fabric of the Olympia community. Re- flecting on that comment, I asked myself – “Is this true?” I can say that it is. OYC is part of the fabric of Olympia – a very special part. We do so many things that weave us together with our com- munity. We work with: Thurston County Chamber of Commerce on their annual Foofaraw event – a day to honor mili- tary personnel and their families. Recreational Boaters Association of Washington (RBAW} and the Northwest Marine Trade Association (NMTA) in sponsoring a Legislative reception that gives us an opportunity to strength- en our relationship with decision makers and for them to be informed on issues of importance to us. Lake Fair. Bob Selene, longtime OYC member is one of the cofounders for this event. OYC is woven into the fabric of that event through numerous crossover activities that add to the enrichment of one or most loved events in Olympia. South Sound Sailing Society by cosponsoring 2 events with them: a cruise that brings the two clubs together and the Wounded Warrior’s Program that takes soldiers out for a day of sailing. Some of major weaving activities introduce people to the water: Young people learn the joy of boating through our junior sailing program.

In addition to the winners of the individual events we're tracking total race results for the summer. The scoring system is experimental at this point and subject to change. For now, a premium is placed on participation. I.e. if you fail to show up or finish we'll give you a bunch of extra points! To earn the title you'll have to sail and finish every race. 100 points was used this time as a quick and dirty method to separate the pack. For example, for the ten races this season, your score is 525. This indicates you missed 5 races and your score for the remaining 5 totaled 25 points (5 fifth places or a combination of different places).

  • The 2015 Texas 200 By: Matt Schiemer
    The 2015 Texas 200 By: Matt Schiemer Me leaving Paul’s Mott at sunrise on Day 4 of the 2015 TX200. Photo By Walter Brown. 1 Introduction In early June 2015, I successfully completed my 3rd Texas 200, having completed the first two in 2013 and 2014. After my first Texas 200 in 2013, I wrote a very extensive account of my experience. The reason that I wrote such a long and detailed account is simple: during the months leading up to my first Texas 200, I read every account and forum post from the prior years, and I found the information extremely helpful. It was due to this helpful information that I had such a good first year. When I was finished, I wanted to provide my own account so that potential first timers could have additional information from which to draw upon as they prepared for their own adventure. And I decided to spare no details. Maybe my account was too long and too dry. Maybe it was helpful. Either way, it’s out there on the Texas 200 website under the Accounts section from 2013, if you’re so inclined. In 2014, after completing the Florida 120 in May and the TX200 in June, I thought about writing an account that compared and contrasted the two events. For some reason, I just never found the right time and just never got around to it. Now, after completing the 2015 TX200, I found myself in the sharing and writing mood again, and so I’ve drafted this account of my 2015 TX200 experience.

  • US Sailing Rig Dimensions Database
    ABOUT THIS CRITICAL DIMENSION DATA FILE There are databases that record critical dimensions of production sailboats that handicappers may use to identify yachts that race and to help them determine a sailing number to score competitive events. These databases are associated with empirical or performance handicapping systems worldwide and are generally available from those organizations via internet access. This data file contains dimensions for some, but not all, production boats reported to USPHRF since 1995. These data may be used to support performance handicapping by affiliated USPHRF fleets. There are many more boats in databases that sailmakers and handicappers possess. The USPHRF Technical Subcommittee and the US SAILING Offshore Office have several. This Adobe Acrobat file contains data mostly supplied by USPHRF affiliated fleets, a few manufacturers, naval architects, and others making contributions to database. While this data file is generally helpful, it does contain errors of omission and inaccuracies that are left to users to rectify by sending corrections to USPHRF by way of the data form below. The form also asks for additional information that anticipates the annual fall data collection from USPHRF affiliated fleets. Return this form to the USPHRF Committee c/o US SAILING. How do you access information in this data file of well over 5000 records for a specific boat? Use Adobe Acrobat Reader’s ‘FIND” feature, <CTRL-F>. Information currently in the file will be displayed for each Yacht Type/Class upon request. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________
