Women’s Thursday Night Race Series
We welcome you to come join amazing sailors in the race series of a lifetime. This race series allows any type of sailor, from beginner to expert, to participate on the HYC’s Sonars. Races are held on Thursdays starting at 5:30pm between the months of May and September. Cost is $15/race or $15/month for 12 months for unlimited use of the Sonars (including Learn to Sail courses).
This is not your typical beer can race. Each new woman sailor gets an engraved wine glass and has access to buying the official HYC Women’s Sailing hats, shirts, and more. After each race, the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place skippers and crew receive wine charms (color coded for what place they finish) to add to their personal wine glass. At the end of the series, Women’s Sailing has a big End of the Year Awards Ceremony, which will occur on October 23rd, 2018 at 6:30pm. This ceremony cost $25/ticket and any woman who participated in HYCWS this year will receive a free drink ticket.
