The racing events for 2016 have been divided up into three series of races that are counted toward the Total Points. Other races are “just for fun”. Actually, all races are just for fun. Some just don’t have points associated with them.

Each series has two throw outs. The Kibble Cup 5-race series now has one throw out.

  • SISC events are in BLACK
  • Regional (“big” boat) events are in VIOLET
  • IOM (“little” boat) events are in RED
  • Non-club events whose dates remain unverified have their titles underlined
  • Kibble Cup races (other than RSS) have their titles in black with a yellow background
