     S
     by Leah Magaña

           ailing enthusiasts came out to support Kaneohe Yacht Club’s
     Junior Sailing program January 12. Mark Towill, former KYC
     Junior Sailor and Co-founder/Team Director of Vestas 11th Hour
     Racing gave an engaging presentation about his recent Volvo Ocean
     Race. Mark’s talk, great food, great company, a raffle full of
     awesome donations, and a worthwhile cause made the event extra
     special. All donations went to Kaneohe Yachting Foundation who
     matched the donations up to $6,000. All together this was our
     largest Jr. Sailing fundraiser yet with over 130 attendees raising
     $17,000 for the program. Jesse Andrews, our Junior Sailing
     Director, looks forward to new practice sails and a new O’pen Bic
     Trailer to help transport young sailors to regattas and clinics around
     the island. Huge thanks to Kaneohe Yachting Foundation and to
     Mark and Tahnee Towill for their huge support of the program.
     Thanks to volunteers Jen and Marc Barra, Jesse and Shelly
     Andrews, Katie Cruise, Lindsey Arcand, and Amy Hammond.
     Thanks also to everyone who donated food and raffle items and
     who came out to support! If you missed the event, and would still
     like to donate to the Junior Sailing Program, please contact Jesse
     Andrews via the KYC Front Office.                                             Mark & Tahnee Towill              Photos: Amy Hammond

Wahine
                 Sailing
                Series
    The Wahine Sailing Series is a competitive series that offers
opportunities for experienced skippers and new Wahine sailors alike.
The series is based around the Wahine Skipper of the Year Perpetual
Trophy, established in 1997 by Ashley & Marvin Lee when they
approached North Sails Hawaii to sponsor a perpetual trophy to
recognize Hawaii’s Wahine skippers.
    Our series is unlike any other series on the island since we compete
in a range of boats, from dinghies to big boats, and we hold regattas all
over Oahu: Waikiki Yacht Club, Kaneohe Yacht Club, Hawaii Yacht
Club, Pearl Harbor Yacht Club, Pacific Yacht Club, and most recently,
University of Hawaii. The 2019 series will feature 8 regattas and a Cal
20 mini-series at WYC.
    In addition to great competition, the series encourages and supports
the growth of women sailors, and introduces sailing to women with little
to no experience. We have held events like a Rolex Clinic, boat
handling/skill building clinic at Hawaii Kai Boat Club, and fun fourth
“crew races” at the end of regattas to encourage new Wahine sailors to
gain experience and confidence on the helm in a low-risk scenario.

So how can you get involved?

Sign up for HYRA blasts by emailing hyra.publicity@gmail.com

* Our “members only” Facebook group includes our NOS, each
regatta’s NOR, and serves as a communication board showing who is
intending on participating, and who is looking for crew, or to be crew,
for upcoming regattas.

We look forward to seeing you on the water!
