About These Races...
Every Wednesday evening from April until October, professional and amateur sailors get together for a friendly sailboat race on the waters of Clear Lake, twenty minutes south of Houston and home of NASA's Johnson Space Center.
These races were created with the public in mind, and the course has been set where the race can be enjoyed by spectators from some of the restaurants around the lake. Audio and video from the committee boat will be beamed ashore to The Classic Club, and everyone is invited to come and watch.
The races are rarely cancelled due to bad weather. In the previous twelve years, the races have been cancelled only about five times due to bad weather. The atmosphere just seems to get its act together as the sun goes down! Come on out and join us!
The races start promptly at 6:15 PM and finish before sunset. Come and join us, and our sponsors, for an evening of fun and relaxation. There's always some commentary on the action,
and if you wish to participate, you're
welcome to sign up on our crew list. We always have boats looking for crew! If you own a boat and would like to participate in these races, read the race instructions, then come out and join the fun. You can sign up the day of the races by filling out an
entry form.
