Got Team?

The 2008 Pacific Cup will include a number of innovations.  One of them will be a team trophy awarded to the best-performing team of three boats from a single yacht club.

Suggested by the Storm Trysail Club and patterned after a trophy awarded in many of their races, this trophy will add a new dimension to the race.   At the end of the race, one yacht club will take home the trophy, celebrating a combined performance under a single burgee.

Pacific Cup organizers hope that this new trophy will foster an additional competitive spirit.  Some clubs may well find this triggers more than one discussion at the bars or the docks.

Race entries are open now.   Teams will be invited to register in early 2008.
