Summer Race Series
Lake Yosemite Sailing Association’s (LYSA) beer can Thursday night racing is the Summer Race Series. It kicks off the first Thursday evening after our Opening Day every year. The Summer series starts May 8, 2025. Registration is $20 per boat.
The first horn is at 6:30pm. The evening races can range from gusty winds that add excitement to calm sunset sails that are very relaxed. It really varies what Mother Nature provides us on Thursday evenings. Regardless of the wind, it is always a blast and enjoyed by those on boats and those spectating from the dock or shore. The race is usually followed by a dinner for a nominal $5 and is cooked up by a club volunteer, the Sea Scouts, or some other group.
If you are interested in joining the club or coming out and racing we cordially invite you to join us. Bring your sailboat, whether that’s a Laser or 25 foot MacGregor. We have everything in between with lots of Catalina 22’s and Merit 25’s or 22’s. The other fun event is the End of Year party where the Summer Series Race awards are awarded.
