MHYC Advanced Race Team
The MHYC Advanced Race Team is for our junior sailors ages 13+ who are interested in competing in regional and national events, representing MHYC. Our junior sailors meet and make friends with other sailors from the I-LYA region and beyond, traveling from Michigan to Erie, all over Ohio, and, beyond! This is also a great stepping stone for high school sailors who want to add more sailing to their summers! Practices and regattas run from May 1 through July 30.
