LARC Race #1, Saturday Jan. 4
​
As we approach the New Year’s celebrations, we also begin a new sailing season. The first race of the 2026 LARC winter series begins on Saturday on Jan. 3. UYC will be sponsoring this series and the skipper’s meeting will be a 11 am at UYC. The UYC gate code is (see LARC email) and they will have coffee available at the skipper’s meeting. I have attached the NOR/SI for the 2026 LARC series.
But you don’t have to wait until Saturday to begin your first sailing adventure. Barefoot Sailing Club will be sponsoring the New Year’s Day Dean Holcomb Poker Run on Thursday, Jan. 1, 2026 (more information at www.barefootsailingclub.org). This has always been a fun event to get back together with all your sailing buddies and test your sailing skills around the buoys.
​
This race will begin at the skipper’s meeting at the Branch House parking lot at 11am. I would like to caution everyone to be mindful of our permanent marks and try not to hit or run over them. I know it is sometimes hard to get close enough to the marks to grab a card, but I would recommend that you bring something like a “grabber” that will enable you to “grab” a card from the mark without actually touching it. Our permanent marks are fragile and are expensive to replace.
Good luck to everyone and may you have the winning Poker hand.
​
See you on the race course, Dana

LARC Winter series 2025
Winter #1, Saturday Jan. 4
​
I was enjoying my retirement from the job of Vice Commodore of LLSC when I was reminded that LARC races were were about to begin. I have attached the current NOR/SI for the 2025 sailing season as well as the racing calendar for this year.
We have had some incredible wind so far this year (all 3 days of it), as you know if you sailed in the Poker Run on Wednesday. Listening to my wind chimes tells me we will continue to have great wind tomorrow for race 1 of the 2025 LARC series.
Skipper’s meeting will be at UYC on Sat at 11am. If we need a gate code, I will send that in another email today.
Warm up your engines, pull out your sails, notify your crew and let’s start racing,
Dana
