The Beercan Races are a fun and (relatively) casual racing series held on Fridays and one Saturday throughout the sailing season. Each event is followed by a PARTY at the locations stated below. Food and beverages are complimentary to SCSC members.
The Rum Party is the highlight of this series!
All members are welcome to attend races, and any boats with an assigned handicap may race. All members and prospective members are welcome at the parties afterward.
Casual racing boats not participating in Yacht of the Year (YOY) events may race in division 5 or in the associated race fleet according to handicap assignments. Additional details about racing can be found in the rules.
All parties will be held on “The Point” at the St. Croix Marina unless stated otherwise below. Event locations shown as TBD will be updated as soon as a venue has been confirmed.
