U20 Regattas - Where, When & Who's Going! / 2026 Western PCC Venue

« Last post by Travis Gregory on October 11, 2025, 04:46:16 PM »

All, we will announce the 2026 championship location at the upcoming class meeting on 10/29.  The west coast district chairs are entertaining locations for PCC's.  Preferably in the spring or summer as NA's will be in the fall.

Ideally we find a location in the mid west that is potentially a draw for boats in Idaho, Montana, Colorado, Utah, Nevada etc.   

If you have a suggestion where there will be a concentration of boats, it is welcome! 

Thanks

There are over 20 boats registered. We are hoping to get to 30 for the 30th anniversary!  Charter's are available if you are interested.  Please reach out to the organizers with questions.

Hi CJ,
I would defer this question to Steve as much of the content in these are his.  I know some of them already are on YouTube.

Are you having trouble with access?  Thanks

Thanks CJ.  These are the big changes. There are a number of formatting updates as well to update the document after years of one off edits. Those are not intended to change the rules at all. 

The ballot has been sent to active class members. If you did not receive it, contact the class secretary.

U20 Regattas - Where, When & Who's Going! / Re: 2025 U20 Regatta Schedule - Have a One-Design Regatta - Post it Here!

The grand finale for racing on San Francisco Bay is always a fantastic event at the Richmond Yacht Club.  U20s will have a one design start on Saturday and then on Sunday, the always surprising and exciting pursuit race either way around Alcatraz and Angel Island.  The theme for the regatta is "Pirates of the Caribbean" and the costume party on Saturday night with great food and a live band is not to be missed.  And, there is also swag you can purchase, even if you can't come.

The Notice of Race is now posted for both days

So get your crews together and don't miss this event.  Contact Mike Josselyn if you have questions about logistics or planning.

Would there be any objection for all of these ending up on YouTube?

Thanks Travis. Can you post a redlined version that shows the proposed changes?

This is the summary that was in the email from Emily Jones regarding the upcoming annual class meeting.

Summary of Updates:
•   The rules have been edited and updated many times over the last 30 years.  Class member Treez Decker labored to improve the consistency of the formatting and numbering.  Thus we are submitting the entire document for approval with this change and 3 other changes of note.  (Thank You Treez!)
•   Crew weight has not changed, but the process for a waiver using the forum was clarified for simplicity. (Article OD-II)
•   The Mast Rake language remains but is now a recommended reference.  It will not be measured at class events.  (OD-III 7.4)
•   Electric outboards now meet the requirements for having an outboard on the boat. (OD-VIII 2)
