The BYC gates are not out and hence the start of the Interclub Women’s Series I is being postponed. Until then, beginning May 26th, NSC will host a Women’s Ice Breaker Series, in accordance with Parts B and F of the Sailing Instructions. However, there will be only one start and Divisions A & B will race and be scored together. Prizes will be awarded to the top three boats. The Ice Breaker Series will end once the BYC Gates are removed.
