The Gibsons Yacht Racing SeriesĀ got off to a great start last Sunday morning for the first race of the season.

Ten boats raced in two starts from Gibsons Harbour light to the Soames Point Mark; skippers and crew numbered 50. Results are pending but everyone had a great time. The wind was a solid 10 knots, which made for some fun and active sailing.

A special thank you to the Gibsons RMC SAR who stood by at the event.

The Gibsons Yacht Racing Series will race again on Sunday, Oct. 30. Boaters and crew will meet at the Gibsons Public Market at 10 a.m. sharp; the start is at 11:30 a.m.

New boats are always welcome. White Sails only, spinnakers will come in the future. Racing experience is not mandatory for skippers, all levels welcome.
