Notice of Race: Spring Ocean

The first race of the 2019 Sailing Inc Offshore Challenge Series will be held Saturday, March 9th.  The Spring Ocean Race will start off the Carolina YC dock using a new starting format.  We will do a staggered fleet start, with the D Fleet starting at approximately 10:00, B and C Fleets at 10:30 and A Fleet at 11:00.  We are doing this in order to have all fleets finish within a close timeframe, to facilitate an after-race awards party at Salty Mikes, starting at 16:00.  RC will announce the course to be sailed prior to the first fleet's Warning on VHF 73.  This race will be scored PHRF time-on-time method.

Preliminary Sailing Instructions

NEW! CORA Crew Board and Facebook Crew/Boat Finder Group

CORA is committed to connecting Crew with CORA Racing Boats, and we've created two new means to do such.  For immediate, real time connection between crew and boat owners, we've created a CORA Facebook Crew/Boat Finder public group where you can post your availablity to crew, and where skippers can post their needs for crew for specific races.  Click HERE to join this group.

Additionally, we've added a Crew Board on this homepage where you can sign in and post your sailing resume/desires and where skippers can post their crew needs.
