Summer is finally here, compete with the incredible joy of a cold beverage can that has been dug up from the lower layers of ice in the cooler such that a little bit of ice has wedged its way into perfect position for the delightful liquid to cascade over frozen water before bringing such happiness […]

This Saturday June 27 is the GPYC windward/leeward regatta.   Normal C-Course start time of noon, race program here:   http://files.ctctcdn.com/c67407de201/b3883506-be88-42f0-bfe0-f0067b53e2a0.pdf Note that this is our last season-counter racing until August 15….meaning that including this Saturday and the North Channel we have exactly 8 racing days left in our season counter schedule.  When the slush is soaking […]

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 […]

Six of us made our way out to the start line for the DRYA season-opening GLYC regatta in very dense fog.  Sort of fun especially as the CSYC contingent navigated as a group effort with a few humorous moments, but wouldn’t want to do that every week!  We got in one race in pretty good […]

The past few years we have had 5+ Cal 25 entries in the season-opening Hind-Hornett doublehanded regatta.  It is a fun race with a FREE barbecue at CSYC including beverages afterward.  Start and finish is off of Crescent, and the course goes to either the Saint Clair Light and back, or a closer buoy and […]

October 4, 2014 started off with dark, cold and ominous skies.  We left CSYC in the rain and a few of us loyal Patriot crew wondered if we really wanted to do this race.   It got much worse because before the start, we lost the main halyard and our crazy Captain had to get hoisted […]

The CSYC Regatta saw 12 of us on the start line this past Saturday.  Great job and looking forward to continued high attendance for the rest of the year.   The wind vaporized and several boats motored it in early – lots of holes to fall into all around, with the first two finishers banging in […]

We had 7 boats out for the DBC point-to-point race last Saturday.  Lots of position changes in shifty light air conditions. This Saturday June 28 is the GPYC windward/leeward regatta.  Standard C-course racing.  Come out and play! Unless I am mistaken they double up on the awards after the Bluenose…so…the party this Saturday is at […]

We had 9 boats last Saturday, and most came by for the barbecue afterward.  The campfire was still going strong with four Cal 25 crews when I went home so it seems like the evening format was a winner.  The only disappointment was not getting in a second race but it did get us to […]

Eight of us were out there on Saturday (Stray Dog needs to sort out sail numbers with the DRYA but they were there;)) for a lovely jaunt around the lake in perfect weather.  CSYC is extremely proud to be associated with the young lady who won the limbo contest.   This weekend is the BOD […]
