I am extremely proud of Nockamixon Sail Club and our Flying Scot fleet for hosting an excellent district championship. Thank you for your hospitality hosting guest racers and welcoming them to our home waters. We had 14 boats racing in 2 classes. You can see pictures of the first day of racing here: https://nauticalphotography.smugmug.com/Sailing-Regattas/Flying-Scot-Class/2019-Flying-Scot-NY-Championship

Hey, everyone, I put a subject of “Events for the week” because we have A LOT going on this week. First we have our Kid’s Sunfish training program which began Tuesday night, and continues Thursday night and Saturday morning.

This weekend looks pretty good, folks. On Saturday we have a Regatta day. All boats are welcome to race, with a single mass start for races. Weather reports suggest a clear, sunny day on Saturday, with temps just over 80º. Winds are forecast at mainly E winds, somewhere around 8 knots and puffing higher. Sunday’s […]
Whoops, this short week got away from me, and I haven’t posted our events for the weekend! Sorry! This Saturday, we have fleet racing scheduled. Each fleet gets its own start.

For this event, participants sail to a set of coves on the lake, and then draw playing cards for each cove they sail to. Whoever has the best poker hand wins the event! Weather for Saturday looks pretty good, warm, […]
Hey, everyone. We do not have use of our usual tents for the ULDB picnic on June 29. We are considering renting tents. We also rent tables and chairs because we can’t co-opt and move all the picnic tables. Are there any members with truck/trailer who could pick up and drop off the items in […]

Hey, all, the week has gotten away from me, so sorry this update is so late. This weekend we have our first Regatta day on Saturday. Regattas are open to all boats (even “cruising” boats) and there is a single start for all boats, rather than separate starts for each class. Weather is […]
Hi, all- This weekend we have more Frostbite Series racing on the schedule for Saturday. Weather looks nice with sunny conditions and temps in the mid-60’s, but the wind forecast looks strong and gusty, with averages around 16 knots and gusts up to 28 knots. Wind direction should be WNW, which will probably mean […]
