In the before Zircon era, trim adjustments in millimeters were probably figments of a trimmer’s imagination. To ease the perfect amount, you uncleated, eased too much, and then had to trim back in. Or worse, knowing that would happen, you didn’t adjust at all. During that time, the sail was either under or over-trimmed.

Zircon blocks overcome inertia from friction so easily, that you react in fractions of time and sheet–creating better matched shapes that pay off in boat lengths. Boat lengths that can be the difference between looking down from the podium...or looking up.

Ease 7 mm.

2024 YRA Calendar • Latitude 38 • Page 5

the yacht Racing association invites you to race in 2024 Ahoy racers!

We hope this publication finds you healthy, happy and looking forward to a great year of sailboat racing. 2023 was an excellent year for racing in San Francisco Bay and the surrounding ocean, and we think 2024 is shaping up to be even better.

Whether you sail a multihull, a classic woody, in a onedesign fleet, or in a handicap fleet; whether you sail shorthanded, sail on the ocean, or sail in the Bay, there are many racing opportunities from which to choose. In addition, the YRA offers some of the best value for your racing dollars.

Our Doublehanded Sunday Series is continuing to grow, and our Doublehanded Midwinter Series is off to a successful start. We’re bringing back our long-distance ocean race, the Bluewater Bash, and last year we added the Half Moon Bay Regatta ocean race to our popular Destination Regattas. And of course we continue to run our Offshore Series, our fully crewed In the Bay Series, and our ever popular Destination Regattas.

We would like to send out our heartfelt thanks to the many volunteers and the YRA member yacht clubs that run races for us. We couldn’t have a racing season without the hard work of these race committees. (You can find a list of our sponsoring clubs on page 8 of this booklet.) Remember to wave thank you to your race committee after you finish a race.

This annual publication serves as your reminder that it is time to renew your YRA membership and PHRF certificate for 2024. Both the YRA website and this booklet have all the information you need for the 2024 season. So choose your races, get them on your calendar, start lining up your crew, and register

Laura Muñoz and Joe Rockmore online. Registration for all our races and series, and for PHRF certificates and YRA memberships, is done through Jibeset.net.

Just click on the Yacht Racing Association link on the left column of the home page to see the full list of registration options.

Be sure to check the YRA website, www.yra.org, for information on educational seminars coming up in 2024, and be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram to keep up with all the latest YRA news.

We look forward to seeing you out on the water and at YRA events in the year ahead.

Fair winds, Joe Rockmore, Chair of the Board

Rules Latitude 38's Basic Racing Guidelines Since sailboat racing is a recreational sport, we think the number-one rule should be to have fun. Beyond that, some basic guidelines help prevent collisions and ensure that racing is both fun and fair. Below is an outline of the 10 basic rules that cover most racing situations.

For completeness and total accuracy, refer to Racing Rules of Sailing 2021-2024, published by US Sailing. See www.ussailing.org for details.

Visit Vallejo! Come for the day and treat yourself to a meal at the Sardine Can or Zeo Freado's or overnight and see all that our city has to offer.

• Fuel Dock Open 7-Days a week • Free Pump Out Station • 700 foot Guest Dock! Stay for the Day or Overnight • Walking distance to restaurants and brewery • Permanent berths available under $10/ft • Home to Vallejo Marine Craft Boat Yard

2024 Great Vallejo Race May 4 & 5

1. Port tack keep clear of starboard tack.

2. If boats are on the same tack and overlapped, the windward boat must keep clear of the boat to leeward.

3. If boats are on the same tack, a boat clear astern must keep clear of a boat clear ahead.

4. When tacking or jibing, keep clear of boats on a tack.

5. Avoid collisions. If you have the right of way and hit the other boat, causing damage or injury, you will both be penalized.

6. Don't obstruct. Don't make it hard for the "keep clear" boat to do so. (No hunting allowed.)

7. Sail the course prescribed. You have to round the marks in the directions specified in the Sailing Instructions and can't touch a mark.

8. Proper Course (same tack, within two hull lengths).

If the leeward boat came from astern, leeward boat shall not sail above its own proper course during the overlap.

(Remember that the windward boat still has to keep clear, even if windward is forced above what it believes is windward's proper course. Leeward still has right of way.)

9. Give room at marks and obstructions to yachts overlapped on the inside, except: a. When the overlap did not exist before the lead boat reaches the three-boatlength zone. b. When approaching a windward mark on opposite tacks. c. At a starting mark surrounded by navigable water.

That is, you don't have to let a barger in at the start except to avoid collision (then protest).

10. Acknowledge your fouls and protest those who don't.

VHF Radio channel Uses Of all the safety equipment on your boat, your VHF radio is probably the most effective and essential.

Because VHF uses common frequencies, it's important to remember a few rules of marine radio etiquette: • Radio checks, which should be performed at least every time you leave your slip and should always be conducted on channel 9, never on channel 16.

• Before hailing another station on channel 16, listen for at least one minute before keying your mic, so as not to “step” on radio traffic that's already underway.

• Speak slowly and pause for at least a minute between hailing attempts.

• Always start on the low power setting.

• Don't use the radio if you have non-emergency traffic that can be accomplished with a mobile phone.
