No cost to race, no scoring and no committee boat. Courses will be called on the water. Join us back at the clubhouse for after racing social.

Spring Series Race #3 scheduled for 3/13/2021 is canceled due to lake level. Racing will resume once the lake reaches 400'. The lake is currently at 396 and rising. Check back here for information on Race #4 currently scheduled for 3/20/2021.

The lake is not rising fast enough this week so we are canceling Spring #2 this Saturday 2/27. The last ten days have averaged half a foot a day. If that continues we should be good for Spring #3 on March 13th.

Spring Series Race #1 scheduled for 2/20/2021 is canceled due to lake level. Racing will resume once the lake reaches 400'. The lake is currently at 392.57 and rising fast. Check back here for information on Race #2 currently scheduled for 2/27/2021.

FLYC will hold Summer Series #2 Friday June 12^th. Meet at the center mark at 6:00 PM. Participants will be required to follow the club’s COVID – 19 Policy (see below). If Summer #2 goes well and everyone follows good safety practices we will continue the Summer Series as scheduled.

We are still working out the details on how to hold the Centerboard and Singlehanded Regattas. The status of Steel Cup and Governor’s Cup are still to be determined. KEMR and the Commodores BBQ are canceled.

Wednesday night Fun Races, aka Beer Cans, are not officially sanctioned races. However boats that happen to meet up at the center mark and agree to sail the same course are free to do so.

COVID–19 Policy

Published on:6/8/2020

• The clubhouse is closed except for official club use, i.e. Race Committee, maintenance etc.
• Social distancing (6 ft min) must be practiced at all events.
• Crews must be from the same household or wear masks.
• No skippers meetings for Series Races
• Masks must be worn for Centerboard and Singlehanded Regatta Skippers Meetings.
• No post-race dock parties.
• Awards will be given at the awards banquet.

The FLYC board has moved forward with a difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Camellia Cup. State Parks will not issue a use permit given the current virus situation and the lake level is very close to our minimum safe elevation for race operations. All paid Camellia Cup entries will receive a full refund. This announcement does not impact the remaining Spring Series races nor the upcoming Trans-Folsom regatta. We hope everyone will stay safe and continue to enjoy sailing Folsom Lake as long as we have water.
