Buccaneer Blast & Silver/Gold Weekend Practice



LYC Optimists,

We have a busy weekend with sailors traveling to the Buccaneer Blast regatta and the LOCR regatta hosted by LYC.

Buccaneer Blast Sailors:

Kyle will be coaching at Buccaneer Blast and he plans to leave early on Saturday morning. Green and RWB are sailing on the same course so he will be able to coach both fleets.
Parents, remember to bring snacks, and plenty of water to stay hydrated.

Saturday 

0815 - LYC Truck arrives at Upper Keys Sailing Club
0930 - LYC team meeting at flagpole (Rigged and Ready)
1000 - Skippers meeting
1730- Dinner/Raffle at Upper Keys

Sunday

0815 - LYC Team meeting at flagpole (Rigged and Ready)
0900 - First warning on the water
1200 - Last warning signal

Remember Sailors to complete a regatta report to share at practice next week.

Silver and Gold Fleet,

Joakim and Juan will be coaching a combined Silver and Gold fleet practice at LYC this weekend. Depending on the breeze and time, practice will most likely be held inside.

We are running practice around the LOCR regatta. To avoid traffic, Optis should be launched from the front East lawn and stored there over night on Saturday. You can move Optis to the front lawn after practices this week.and
Plan on arriving at the club around 10am to rig and move boats to the front east lawn. Practice will start at 10:30am. Meet the coaches at the flag pole at this time.  Practice will run until 4:30pm. Practice times will be the same time on Sunday. Move Optis back to the sailing center after practice on Sunday.

Practice summary: Gold & Silver Fleet
 
Sat 2/8 10:30am-4:30pm
Sun 2/9 10:30am-4:30pm

I will be coaching a high school regatta in St.Petersburg on Saturday (I hope we have wind!).  I will be back on Sunday.

Good luck to those traveling to the Upper Keys! I hope you have a lot of fun.
Julia Melton
