It is easy and simple to participate in AYC racing events - in general you will need to:
- Accept a liability waiver
- Verify that you have insurance
Note that to participate in most club buoy and distances races you will need to pay a one-time registration fee of $100. If you would like to be scored you will also need to be a current PHRF-Northwest member and have a rating for your boat.
Your PHRF-NW membership is required if you want to be scored as it provides you with a handicap rating which the club can use to correct your elapsed times relative to the performance potential of your boat. For additional information about PHRF-Northwest, please refer to the following website. Your can also contact our local club PHRF handicapper, Paul Bergman at 360-757-4587 or by e-mail for additional information.
