This year the West Vancouver Yacht Club (WVYC) will be holding their 41st annual Southern Straights Classic April 10th-12th. This is the most gruelling and difficult race in the Vancouver Area. This year will be the first year Team SEA WEASEL will be competing. Their are three courses, Short, Medium, and Long, of course SEA WEASEL will be doing the short course but at 65 Nautical Miles it could hardly be called short. The plan is to build up our skills over the winter by competing in the VRC Polar Bear Race. The boat will be hauled and painted in March prior to the race.
2009 Short Course
We will be looking for crew that will be up for a potentially 24 hour race. I would like to have 6 people on board to do the race so we can break into two shifts. This is a serious race that will involve being on the water for a long time so make sure that you are mentally and physically up for the challenge. If you are interested please register your interest by emailing me.
