Welcome to the Mount Sinai Sailing Association!
SPRING #1 IS IN THE BOOKS!
![]() The results of Spring Series Race #1 can be found here. It was nice to see a good turnout in the Spinnaker Fleet. We certainly need to see some more non-spinnaker boats out there. If you are looking for a way to get more use out of your boat, racing on Thursday Nights is a great way to get out and enjoy your boat. The Non-Spinnaker Fleet is designed for easy entry by novice racers/sailors. With a separate start, fleet scoring and a free club handicap, the MSSA racing program is an ideal way for members to get out an go sailing every week throughout the season. No registration or fees required. If you are interested in learning how to race your boat, need a handicap or any information on how to get started, the MSSA Handicap Committee, Vice Commodore and your club scorers would be happy to help. |

HEY RACERS! It's time to sign up for Race Committee! |

MSSA RACE COMMITTEE SIGNUPS ARE IN PROGRESS! Like last year, this year we are doing the signups online. To sign up please go to our Sign Up Genius page and select the race(s) for which you'd like to serve as RC. First come, first served! Note that if you raced your boat at all with MSSA in 2021 you need to perform RC duty. Also note that RC duty is actually simple to do and we can't run a race program without RC boats. Please contact our esteemed Vice Commodore, Barry Lenoble, with any questions. |
WE'RE BACK IN THE WEBSITE BUSINESS! |

You are all most likely well aware that technical challenges have precluded making updates to this site for several months. We have FINALLY worked our way past the worst of those issues, and will be getting the site content back up to speed over the next few weeks. Thanks to all of you for your patience! |
HEY RACERS! It will soon be time to sign up ONLINE to serve as Race Committee in 2022!We're planning a full race schedule for 2022, so start thinking about the race(s) for which you'd like to serve as Race Committee!

Signups are first come, first served, so go sign up as soon as we get the form ready for the best chance of securing your preferred event. That's it!
