The Club runs a Spring Series for racing keel boats, a Summer series and then a full year series where the results from Spring and Summer series are combined for an overall trophy.

Usually Spring series has 4 races within it whereas the Summer series includes 4 or 5 races.

Spring Series, assuming 4 races sailed, usually has one discard whilst Summer Series, assuming 5 races sailed may have 2 discards. Overall series has 2 discards.

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.

For the overall winner of the two series combined  there is the Vice Commodore’s Cup. The Vice Commodore’s Cup is a silver rose bowl presented to the Club by Mrs Toulmin in memory of her late husband Mr. J. Toulmin who, at the time of his death, was Secretary to the Club.

The fantastic Northumberland Plate race and a cruise in company for those who would like to sail back to CYC with the racers. This year RNYC are hosting the event. The start will be at Amble on the 25th and the boats will sail to RNYC. Bar and entertainment in the clubhouse at RNYC on the Saturday night. Bar at CYC on the Friday Night.

Return cruise on the Sunday.

Our annual Commodore’s Cup race. Who can win this trophy race?

Our regatta is always a fun-filled, busy sailing and social weekend.

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.

RNYC’s legendary regatta.

This is a stand alone trophy race with no points being accrued for the coming season’s series.
