A CORINTHIAN CHAMPIONSHIP for U.S. YACHT CLUBS
September 9-14, 2024
REQUEST FOR INVITATION
New York Yacht Club is seeking U.S. yacht clubs interested in competing in this Corinthian yacht club championship. Competition will be held in identically tuned one-design Sonar keelboats with a total of 3-4 crew and a max weight of 725 pounds. All crew must have a World Sailing Group 1 categorization and be a full-time member, or the spouse or child (under age 25) of a full-time member, of the competing club.
Racing will take place on Narragansett Bay, Wednesday through Saturday, with registration Monday, September 9, followed by a mandatory practice day and the Opening Reception, Tuesday, September 10.
While the top team is guaranteed a berth in the 2025 Rolex NYYC Invitational Cup, to be sailed in NYYC's fleet of IC37s in September 2025, this is a stand-alone regatta with no obligation to continue to the international event.
Please submit this Request for Invitation form no later than Friday, February 23. Invitations will be issued, via email, by March 6, with the the goal of having the highest caliber fleet and widest possible geographic representation on the starting line next September.
