Firecracker 500

July 10, 2021 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm

The Firecracker 500 is this Saturday July 10th at 2:00.  The weather is looking much better than last Saturday.  Today is the last day to register.  Pursuit races are a lot of fun.  There is no hectic start as each boat is assigned a start time based on their boat’s handicap.  Boats should complete the course around the same time giving an exciting finish.  Afterwards, please share some post-race camaraderie with the race results and awards ceremony.   If you are sticking around please sign up for the Wine Tasting (6:00pm- see previous emails).  If you have any questions about racing or you would like to register your boat, please email the Fleet Captain Jessica Eddy-Storey at  [email protected] with your specific boat information needed to get your PHRF base rating (handicap) including:
