The Pearson Sailing Association of the Chesapeake Bay and Rhode River Boat Club will be holding the 6th annual Race to Dun Cove with a Saturday night raft-up near the finish line.

This will be a reverse PHRF race so scoring will be a little easier at the finish-line. There is also a cruising component to this race in that you have show some boat handling skills in rafting-up, and having some good food to share with others.

Sailing Instructions and sign-up information is here:

Hope to see you there!

3 point "boathandling credit" to your rating if you raft up under sail? :)

I like that idea! Unfortunately, those kinds of credits are only in the form of "style points" right now. But that may change. Come to think of it, those of us who actually bring an anchor should get extra points too.

The best part is that it is a distance race (20nm) and a raft-up after. Makes for a more interesting race than just round the bouys.
