NBYA 420 Events

7/2: Three boats from the 420 race team participated in a NBYA Team Race Clinic at Conanicut Yacht Club. They were coached all day by World Team Race Champion Amanda Callahan. The team learned a variety of team racing tactics, and then were able to practice their skills in a double round robin team race scrimmage. Our very own Ida team sailed away undefeated!
