Racing at the American Yacht Club

The long history of sailing events continues

Racing has been a tradition at the American Yacht Club since its inception over 100 years ago. Today sailors continue that tradition by participating in races both local and far away.

The American Yacht Club is host to active racing fleets. All races hosted by the AYC are open to anyone wishing to participate, including members of other clubs or the public at large.

Lasers
A single-person boat sailed competitively all over the world. These boats have one sail and are very light and fast while being very simple to handle.

PHRF
An open class, generally for 20'+ boats that are not part of an active one-design fleet. Boats are rated based on a formula and scored depending on their time to complete the course.

Race courses are not published on the web pages as they are subject to daily weather conditions and are often not revealed until the beginning of any given race.

Note that this race information is frequently updated, especially at the beginning of the season as the information becomes available. Check back often!
