Model Sailboat Racing

May 20, 2019 by DMYC

Model sailboat racing uses the same rules as full-size boats, with a few changes that are required for RC sailing:

  1. We use verbal starting countdown which is a 1 or 2 minute recording.
  2. We typically have 5 to 15 heats per evening, with each evening scored as a separate race, and each race is then used for season scoring.

How do you get started?

May 20, 2019 by DMYC

Visit our club on race days. Visit as many times as you would like to. Sail or Race if someone has a spare boat.

If you decide you want to own your own boat there are many options:

  1. Buy a kit and build you own
  2. Build your own from scratch
  3. By a gently used boat
  4. Pay someone to build you a boatwant.

If you are building a boat, plan that over winter and consider buying a used one to sail so you can sail right away! Then you can keep the used one or sell it!
