The June Bug Regatta is Fanshawe Yacht Club’s classic summer regatta. Kick off the season by racing with us! 

This is an Open Regatta for all sailors (including sailing school students) – including those who are not members of FYC but who are members in good standing of a sailing club affiliated with Sail Canada, US Sailing or other National Authority-are welcome and encouraged to participate!

If you are not a member of a sailing club but want to race in one of our regattas, you can join Sail Canada via Ontario Sailing, and receive the Right to Race. Click Here and select “All Other Registrations” to begin the registration process to receive your membership card.

 

Lunches

Saturday – wraps/half subs and peach cobbler with pop and coffee.

Sunday – Leftovers from Saturday!

Note:  as part of FYC’s Green Initiatives, we will not be providing bottled water. Please bring your own refillable water bottle.

 

Race Starts

Our race committee always gives preference to water-based starts. If that is not possible, for instance due to inclement weather or a shortage of volunteers, land-based starts will be used. See the sailing instructions below for more information.

  • First Race: scheduled for Saturday at 11 AM.
  • First Race on Sunday around 9:30 start
  • Last Race: no start sequence will begin after 3:00 pm Saturday or 1:30 PM on Sunday.
