** Join us for the 2020 Kamikaze Regatta **

From James ODell, Regatta Chair. ...


Percy Priest Yacht Club cordially invites you and your crew to attend the Kamikaze Regatta.


This year the Kamikaze is going to be a little different, as you might expect. See the Notice of Race for some changes because of the pandemic. 

As normal for this race, we will be running a Pursuit Style Race. This means each different type of boat will have its own start countdown. The faster your boat is, the longer your countdown before you can cross the start line. Whoever finishes first, wins! The courses will be distance races. So, depending on the wind, the course may round some islands headed north toward the dam. Or, it may head south toward Hobson Pike bridge.

This regatta is open to all sailboat types and will be using PHRF handicap for scoring. Skipper and crew of all skill levels are invited to join in. This is typically a fun (if not cold and wet) to close out our sailing year. If you haven't raced before, make sure to send an email to racing@ppyc.org so we can assign you a countdown time for your boat's start.


See this Kamikaze Regatta link for more information and details about registration.
