SYC Annual Golf Tournament to be held at City Park

Save the date - October 7th at City Park

SYC sailor Reed Menszer a real sportsman

Both Reed Menszer and another sailor were at the back of the pack in this race during the Texas Youth Race Week. They were going downwind when the other kid flipped. Instead of sailing on, Reed hung around until the other boat was righted since a safety boat wasn't in the vicinity. Weighing around 60lbs, I’m not sure what Reed could have done but he deserves a sportsmanship mention for looking out for the safety of another sailor.

Bring Your Broom and Ride with the Witch

Adult Sailing at SYC is going to take a dramatic change for the better over the next few weeks. For the past two years, SYC has been looking for a keel boat to introduce PHRF racing into the program. In March, we found a Soverel 26 in Connecticut named Bruja (“Witch”). She was shipped to New Orleans and is now sitting in the wet slip where all can see her. She has already made her mark on PHRF racing winning the Race to the Coast by 15 minutes over two Melges 32s. She was skippered by Commodore Dwight Leblanc. She followed that up with six straight first place finishes at the Challenge Cup, one of the premiere PHRF racing events in the GYA. So she should perform well in the Wednesday night race series that occur between March and October.
