Sunday Morning Series
The main club racing series take place on Sunday mornings throughout the year. They are divided into four series which roughly correspond to the four calendar quarters.
Sunday morning racing starts at 10.25 with two races run back to back. There are five starts for each race with the classes split into groups mainly dependent on the types of courses they wish to sail. Starts 3 and 4 are usually combined unless numbers are large. This is done by raising their respective start flags (the standard numeral flags) simultaneously.
