Spring Series race results go towards the Fasson Trophy. The Fasson Trophy was presented to the Club in 1978 by Fasson Ltd. who were closely associated with the Club through Mr. Donald Kember. This is a silver gilt cup and highly contested each year.

Summer Series results go towards the Jambo Cup. The Jambo Cup was presented to the Club in 1992 by keen racer Peter Cossins. Peter was a keen racing enthusiast having a series of boats called Jambo ending in the Mustang 30 Jambo V.

Our annual ladies race whereby a lady must be on the helm at all times. This year, we are trying to get a mystery guest starter for the race.

The pursuit race is always a great test but without the (sometimes) nerve shredding starts. Each boat starts at an allotted time based on their handicap. The race has a time limit. At the end of the race the order the boats are in is the order they finish in.

Often, our cruisers make a night of it in Newton and enjoy a pint in the pub on the green. Our racers either stay the night or come back to the bar @ CYC.

This race is across the tide.

A beautiful summers evening sail? 

This season we are adding a mini autumn series.
