Catalina 22 Texas Circuit

The Texas Circuit was discussed over a year ago at one of the local regattas. At that time David Hayslip volunteered to put together a program for discussion at a later event when several areas of Texas were represented.

On May 7, 2000 David presented the program for discussion at the close of the Texas State Genoa Championship regatta held at Arlington Yacht Club.

After discussion it was decided to give David's proposal a try and make it retroactive to our first regatta of the year, the Mayor's Cup held at Grapevine Sailing Club on April 15 & 16, 2000.

October 15, 2005 - New guidelines made to Texas Circuit at FWBC are listed below and become effective in 2006:

GUIDELINES 2006

  • An annual participation fee of $10.00 will be assessed each participant at their first regatta. This is to pay for trophies etc.

  • Low point scoring system will be used; awarding 1 point for first, 2 for second etc.

  • Points awarded for not competing will equal 1+ number of boats participating in the circuit. This number may change during the course of the circuit depending on entries received prior to the registration cutoff.

  • June 1 is established as cutoff to sign up to participate in the circuit and be scored.

  • Seven events will be scored; the best five will count toward circuit standings.

  • Minimum number of Texas Yachts to qualify as a circuit regatta is the number of yachts to make a fleet by the local club.

  • Local representation shall provide Regatta information to class membership (a participating representative must volunteer).

  • Mayor's Cup will be the first circuit of the year and awards will be at that event the next calendar year.

  • Out of state competitors will not count in the standings nor toward the minimum number of Yachts for regatta qualification.
