Fleet 95
Fleet News
The Catalina 22 fleet was formed at Privateer Yacht Club many years ago. It was reactivated a few years ago due to the efforts Kent Overbeck. The 2008 fleet captain is Bill Robertson. Our fleet is growing rapidly. Our fleet has doubled in the last 6 months and we are now over 35 boats, the largest one design fleet in Privateer and the largest Catalina 22 fleet in the world! One of our current fleet members, Walt Jenison, was one of the original fleet members and the Club Champion when the fleet was first formed in the early 1970's. Pictured above are 4 of our fleet members in a recent fleet race.
The 2008 season is now well underway. If you haven't been out racing, you have already missed some great wind. The Spring is the best time of year for sailing at PYC. Check out the race results below.
2008 Results
Fleet Racing Rules
1. The fleet will be divided into Gold and Silver fleets. Race results will be computed with both fleets combined and will be split at the end of the season for awards. Both fleets will start together. Any time that there are 3 Catalina 22's racing from either fleet, the race will count for year end awards. All races held during the year will count.
2. In order to qualify for year end awards, the skipper must have raced in a minimum of 1/2 of the races sailed, or 10 races; whichever is LESS.
3. All skippers will be scored with the minimum number of qualifying races, so that all skippers will be scored with the same number of races.. Skippers who have sailed more that the minimum will throw out their highest scores. The winner will be the lowest cumulative score of their best races. At the end of the season, the awards will be given to the best score from the Gold and the Silver Fleet. The number of awards will be dependent on the number of qualifiers.
4. Ties will be broken in the following manner:
A. Comparison of throw outs. (who got the most 1st's, then 2nd's, etc)
B. If still tied, then who beat who the most in direct head to head competition.
C. If still tied, then the who had the best overall average score.
D. If still tied, then they are tied.
