Southern California Yachting Association Organized 1921 Dear Racers: 2013 represents the 84th year that the Southern California Yachting Association (SCYA) has sponsored the SCYA Midwinter Regatta (Midwinter). This event is the largest and most unique regatta in all of North America. The Midwinter will be held at 25 individual SCYA member Clubs and associations stretching from Channel Islands Harbor south to San Diego, and east into Arizona. The event is supported by a host of volunteers making it possible for hundreds of boats with crew numbering in the thousands to participate. There are over 100 classes participating in the 2013 Midwinter Regatta, including one-design, PHRF, cruisers, multi-hull, dinghies (with both inshore and offshore venues), and model boats. These numbers and diver- sity of classes make the Midwinter Regatta a special racing experience and helps skippers and their crews to prepare for the oncoming racing season. The Midwinter provides an opportunity for individual Yacht Clubs to host specific races and gives sailors from their area the opportunity to race in a combined, quality regional regatta against the best sailors in Southern California and beyond. The goal for the 2013 SCYA Midwinter Regatta Committee is to provide a high level of competition and quality racing for sailors throughout Southern California and Arizona. We plan to make the Midwinter Regatta a truly memorable “kick off” to the 2013-racing season. By racing in the SCYA Midwinter Regatta, you are supporting the noble cause of SCYA. Some of the proceeds cover host venue costs associated to the race. The majority of the proceeds go to SCYA in directly serving the Southern California and Arizona yachting communities. SCYA’s activities include publishing the Annual Race Calendar & Yacht Club Directory, spon- soring boat safety seminars, presenting honor awards to the member clubs and individuals, providing a service center to assist all our member clubs, and to provide a yachting presence to public agencies having influence over the boating community. SCYA is a service oriented, non-profit organization supporting yacht clubs; learn more about SCYA at: http://www.scya.org. On behalf of the SCYA Midwinter Committee, thank you for registering. We are confident that the Midwinter will be a won- derful racing experience and networking opportunity.
