12th Annual SCSC Pursuit Races
Saturday, July 20th at 11:00 hrs

Notice of Race – Sailing Instructions
Start Times – Results

The Pursuit Race is an exciting twist on our traditional races!
Boats will start based on handicaps – High-PHRF boats first, Lower-PHRF boats later.  Each class of boat has their own start time.  Hence, faster boats will PURSUE the slower ones.  The idea is to have everyone finish at the same time (and scare the heck out of the Race Committee).  The first boat across the finish line is the winner!

All boats should have a copy of the Start Times document (above) on board.  You may also contact the Race Committee on VHF 72 for your start times.

Start times are created for all boats registered with SCSC. These times will dictate when your boat starts after the conclusion of the initial start sequence. The final start times for registered boats will be posted on Friday evening.  If you’d like to consider a different configuration (S/NS/Jib%, etc) let the Race Committee know ASAP and your new handicap will be added.  You may choose your final configuration prior to the first start of the day.  If your boat has multiple configurations, you must notify the Race Committee of your configuration prior to your start.

Boats trailing behind may be “scored in place” to keep races rolling.  The Race Committee will notify boats via VHF if they have been scored in this manner.

The Pursuit Races are open to all members of the club, and all boats with an assigned handicap.

For questions or to submit handicap changes, contact the Race Committee.
