2015 Bayview Long Distance Race
Kudos to the four boats who went out in some chilly and windy conditions this past Saturday: Second Wind, Frunobulax, Clytie, and Patriot. The DYC Sweepstakes turned out to be another windward/leeward race day in which just one race got run….noting that the entire season yielded us only 5 windward/leeward races as we had one […]
2015 Nationals — Felix Basadre
Congratulations to One Time! They won the 2015 Cal25 Nationals in convincing fashion. Six out of seven bullets, what else can you say, very impressive. However, they did have to earn it.

How do I determine my sail number?
For my Cal 25, I have the hull number from the pink slip, but don’t know how to determine the sail number. Any help? Thanks, Bob Reeves Your sail number should be your hull number. With the older boats, the hull number is on the inside of the hull on the starboard side. I’ve seen […]
2015 DYC Sweepstakes
Eight of us had a good fun race from GPYC to DYC on Saturday, with five different boats in the lead at one point or another. Note that only seven Cal 25s got scored – if you are not a DRYA-registered boat you need to verify with the committee pre-start that you are there. Half […]
