Skippers and others,
I've attached the May Cup NOR, May Cup Sailing Instructions, and the BYC Race Entry Form for all 3 Series (Don't forget there is a discount if you pay for all 3 series by May 7th.).
This year the plan is that someone will be calculating the tentative race results each Wednesday evening at the clubhouse and a prize will be given to the 1st place boats that night. I hope all will get their 2010 PHRF Certificates and Entries in as soon as possible, so the results will be as accurate as possible each Wednesday night. There will be a keg of beer there and more. Jim Vos has started us out and the Board is hoping other skippers will help out during the summer. I think you should contact Jane Babcook ( JBabcook@Corcoran.com ) if you want to contribute, but not me. On the 2nd Wednesday, May 12, the BYC BOD's are throwing a party so hope you can be there (more details will come in the future).
Tony Dill is sending out the PHRF Form and info this week, but it is also downloadable from the ELIYA website: www.elisailing.org. You might consider joining ELIYA and save $5 on you PHRF Certificate. If you plan on racing in the Sag Harbor Cup, the Maycroft Cup, and the Whitebread, then you would only need to do one more race from the ELIYA Championship Racing Circuit to qualify for the Series. The dates for the races are in the center section of the home page and last year's descriptions of the races are on the right in the Offshore section ("Offshore Calendar"). The only race that is going to be significantly different from last year will be the Sag Harbor Cup which will start in Noyack Bay (Spin's doing windward-leeward & non-spins around some gov't buoys). There is also a link to US Sailing on the bottom right, so make it easy for you to become a member or renew your membership of US Sailing. There are also links to the other YC's in the East End.
Yours in Sailing,
Joan Worthing
ELIYA Secretary

I hope to see everyone at the commissioning ceremony on April 24th at 4:00pm. I accidentally gave Brett the wrong date for the last email blast which said it was this weekend.
There will be a skippers meeting at 2:00 the afternoon of the 24th prior to the commissioning. We have had some interesting ideas proposed for the summer series this year and some other changes which are really great. Please try to attend.
Best to all,
Chris DiSunno
