Sequoia Yacht Club Racing Program
Sequoia Yacht Club hosts a variety of racing events throughout the year, click on individual race series links below to learn more.
While competitive, the goal of racing at SYC is to foster sportsmanship, friendship and seamanship. There is usually a barbeque or dinner after each race where racers can gather to discuss the wind shifts, bay currents and winning/losing strategies over a beer.
The major series sponsored by Sequoia Yacht Club includes:
- Redwood Cup - Tim Anto
- Winter Series - Hans Spanjaart
- Single/ Double-handed Racing - Anja Bog
- Wednesday Night Sunset Race Series - Andrew Rist
- Summer Series - Mark Wommack
