Time Trial for Powerboats and Yachts Under Power

Looking for an excuse to get out on your boat over winter? Interested in a friendly competition with some nice prizes and a catch-up at the Club after the event?

The RYCT Cruising Committee is planning a Time Trial on 2 July for powerboats and yachts under power.

The format is simple. The Cruising Committee will present a route around buoys in the Derwent, all within a few miles of the club. You and your crew will estimate the time it will take you to complete the circuit and your average speed.

Each boat will start from off Castray Esplanade at 1-minute intervals, in order of slowest nominated speed to fastest, and finish back at Castray having rounded a series of turning marks from near Government House to near Droughty Point. The crew which finishes at the time closest to their estimated time will receive a handsome prize!

Entry is via the online entry on the website and will cost you the princely sum of $20! Prizes are courtesy of our event sponsor Boat Sales Tasmania.

This link will take you to the online entry system and Notice of Time Trial with all the details. https://ryct.org.au/time-trial-for-powerboats-and-yachts-under-power/

The event Sailing Instructions will be published soon. 
And we all get to enjoy a barbecue and a few convivial drinks back at the Club.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact David Bowker, Matt Pilkington or Nick Hutton.
