One of Harlem's traditional favorites. No excuses about not being able to find crew! We usually run the J/24s in one division and everybody else in another, but we'll create whatever divisions make sense when we see who shows up.

The race committee set up near the Big Tom buoy. Winds were about 10 kts, oscillating over about 30 degrees in a generally south or south-westerly direction. Both divisions were sent on a 5 nm course to the EBYRA "J" mark. Keeping with HYC tradition, a fairly long line was set. The RC was looking to ensure clean starts for all competitors, and a minimum of salty vocabulary within earshot of the committee boat.

2009 Spring Regatta Results
This year saw the re-introduction of the HYC Spring Regatta, on the 125th anniversary of its first running, in 1884.
Two divisions (Beneteau 36.7 and J/24) were registered, although the B-36.7's had minimal attendance. The J/24's, however, had 6 boats and got in three races on Saturday, and another three on Sunday. First place, and the 2009 Director's Prize was awarded to Paul Beaudin, who skippered Express to a perfect first place finish with five bullets.

Thai Hot and Rally Point compete in Stonington to Boothbay Harbor
The inaugural Stonington to Boothbay Harbor Race (aka the Lobster Run) started Sunday morning. Rear Commodore Bob Fleno's Thai Hot and past commodore Tom Lane's Rally Point, both boats crewed by HYC members, are among the contenders. You can follow their progress at http://charthorizon.com/races/2008_stonington_boothbay/htdocs/
As of early Monday morning, Thai Hot, in division A, was about 20 miles from the first mark and making 4.9 kts over the ground. Rally Point, in division C, was about 50 miles from the mark, and making 2.9 kts.
Vice Commodore's Regatta
The Vice Commodore's Regatta is one of Harlem's newer events. Designed to encourage mixing of the species, the rules for this race require that each boat be crewed by a mix of sailboat owners and powerboat owners.
Racing Schedule and Results
Notices of Race will be posted on the Racing bulletin board at HYC and on the website prior to each race. Entry forms will be available on the Racing bulletin board. For further information, contact Ellen Murphy, Race Chairman (race@hyc.org).
