how do you enter into the shelter island race, what kind of boats will be racing, how many might show up

also i heard there is a sunfish race the same day that also goes around the island, same question about that


i need some parts for a hobie cat and need to know where i can get parts around here, any help with this will be appreciated

thanks phil

Show up at the Southold Yacht Club on the morning of the race (7/12). The sunfish start first-around 10am. The cats start 10:30-11am. Most sailors set up their boat in the parking lot and roll them onto the beach. We've had as many as 12 boats. It seems like there may be more interest this year. This website has a marine store that stocks all kinds of parts and supplies for cats.

doesn't cost anything to enter?

would i be able to race a phantom in the sunfish race?

It's something like $30/person. You get T-shirts, food and trophys. It's a good deal. I can't speak for them allowing boats that aren't Sunfish in the Sunfish class. They get enough sunfish anyway. We need more cats.

what size boats enter?

i'm sailing a 17 right now and it doesn't have a jib

i would like to go any way even if i'm racing faster boats

We should have a few Hobie 16's, Prindle 16's, Hobie FX one, Blade F16,Nacra 5.5SL, Nacra 5.8, and modified Tornado. We have had Hobie 17's, Prindle 19, and Supercat 17's in the past.
