Monthly Tuesday Evening Schedule

Other Lakes From time to time, this Sailing Season, we plan on sailing at other lakes in order to generate more exposure to the public than can be done at a private lake such as Surprise Lake. We want to experiment with this and see what response we get. If it does not seem to work, then we’ll cancel the "other lakes experiment." There will be email, newsletter and/or website advises of any "other lake" sailing locations.

First Tuesday AC yachts along with tuning/Rules/Tactics Seminar and a chance to speed test and try new ideas to

Improve boat speed. Old timers will assist newcomers in tuning their boats then the seasoned skippers can tune their own yachts. Starts with a 30 minute on-the-water Rules and Tactics Seminar conducted by experienced skippers.

Second Tuesday Points Nite EC12. Scores will be kept through the end of Daylite Savings to determine the winner of the Tuesday Nite Series. No other class boat will be allowed on the same course with the EC12 to eliminate any possibility of other classes interfering with the competing EC12s. Bring any other RC yacht to be sailed on another course that may be set up.

Third Tuesday ODOMs Novice/Mentor Night. Novices may pick the experienced skipper of their choice to help them tune their yacht and be their tactician.

Fourth TuesdayODOM Points Night. Scores will be kept through the end of Daylite Saving to determine the winner of the ODOM Trophy. No other class boat will be allowed on the same course other than the ODOM. See above in the Second Tuesday for further explanation on other class RC boats.

Fifth Tuesday Novice/Mentor Night. Open to all sail boats. Novices may pick the experienced skipper of their choice to help tune their yachts and be their tactician.
