After cancelling week 1 of racing due to wind gusts of 30 MPH, racing began this week. With 5 racers out on a cloudy day with shifty, gusty winds, Harvey Davidson and crew did a great job getting in 3 races and got us back to the dock by 4:00. Next up, Wednesday night racing begins.

The MYC 2025 Spring Work Party Day 2 was another success! Docks, decks, steps and gate got sealed, some painting and staining got done, lots more raking and leaf removal got done, and lots of other projects got started. There are a few projects left to finish up, but the club looks just great!

We will have a Spring Work Party makeup on Sunday 4/27/2025 starting at 10AM. Docks and moorings are mostly done so we will be doing cleanup, painting, staining. Hope to see lots of you there that could not come last week.Light refreshments will be served.

If you still need a makeup after this weekend we will let you know what tasks are left to do,
