Now in its 36th season, BYC's Wednesday Evening Races are the largest ongoing sailing event in the entire Massachusetts Bay area, and the largest weeknight racing program in New England. For twenty weeks each year, from mid-May to late September, 80 boats come out every Wednesday evening to race in 7 different PHRF and one-design classes. The non-spinnaker races were originally established to encourage cruisers and non-racers to try their hand at racing competition in a more benign environment.

 

What has resulted is a friendly, but spirited, competition among top PHRF racers, casual racers, cruisers, and several one-design classes. BYC has been able to provide a top caliber racing program to both skippers and crew, and an equally enjoyable after-race social event.

As in past years, entry into the full season for the Wednesday Evening Series includes automatic entry into the BYC Memorial Day Weekend and the the James R. Hodder Regatta. On the year that the BYC will host the Chowder Challenge this will also be included (Chowder Challenge is a fall race run jointly between the BYC, CYC and EYC). Let's go racing!!
