The Tahoe Cup will be the combined score of the above designated races (*) with one throw-out. Committee boat will receive an averaged score for that race. Sign up by June 1 for race committee. You may also pre pay $60 for seven races on or before June 1. The Southern Crossing has a separate fee.

The winner of the Tahoe Cup may be from any division. Recognition will be given to the top point scores in the A/B Division and the C/D Division as well, with his or her name inscribed on a separate plaque.

Race Committee Boat Duty

It shall be the responsibility of all members, who wish to race, to serve as committee boat, if needed, at least once a season. The race committee boat duty roster shall be maintained by the Rear Commodore or his/her delegate. After June 1, the Rear Commodore shall assign members who wish to race, to any vacant committee boat dates. The members volunteered or assigned shall be responsible for running said race: If the responsible member is not able to fulfill his/her obligation, that member is responsible to find a replacement. If the responsible person does not complete his/her obligation, that person's boat will not be allowed to compete in any Windjammers Yacht Club sanctioned events until he has acted as a race committee in an subsequent event.

The Tahoe Cup is an award to recognize the best performing boat of the season. An eligible boat must be sailed by it's primary owner (s)/skipper, or on occasions, a member of the regular crew that sails on the boat. Owner/Skipper or designated crew (who is a regular WYC member) must drive the start, finish, and 50 percent of the sailing time in each race. The Tahoe Cup will use the low point system with one throw out. Each yacht's finishing position in each of the TC events will be added together to make up a total score. A contestant serving as RC officer in a TC event will receive their average points earned from the other TC races throughout the season (excluding throw-out, one time only) for that race. In the case of a tie, the first tie-breaker will be to put one who has served as RC ahead of one who has not by a half point. This changes RRS A8. All competitors should serve as RC for a scheduled Regatta or for one month of timed Beer Can Racing.
