2025 Schedule
April 5 ERROR Cup The “distance race” for Lasers, JC9s, UFOs - basically anyone in a small boat which goes out and around Execution Rocks. The Execution Rocks Race Out and Return Cup.
June 14 Saturday Commodore’s Cup This is a HYC member only event, a single day race around government marks and with a timed Pursuit Start, our low-pressure way to get out racing.
August 16 Saturday Governor’s Cup We share the running of this event with two other clubs, City Island Yacht Club and Orienta Yacht Club. This year is is Orienta’s turn to run it.
August 17 Sunday Mayors’ Cup This race is quite the fiasco! A pursuit style start with three rounding marks. Competitors start in any direction they choose, round the marks in any order or direction and finish in any direction they choose. Put your navigation, tide mapping and forecasting to the test!
November 1 (Sat) Annual Turkey Day Reach
In partnership with New York Athletic Club; hosted this year by HYC. If you dread haul-out as much as we do, the Turkey Day Reach is the perfect excuse to put it off just a little longer. Check back here for the Turkey Day Reach Yachtscoring link.
