Corporate Racing Program is a series of sailboat races open to corporations, businesses and organizations. Teams race aboard J/24 sailboats completely outfitted and ready to race with a special spinnaker sail displaying the teams corporate logo. Each team consists of five people and substitution is allowed at anytime during a series. Teams can be made up of experienced and non-experienced sailors, but the Skipper must list his or her sailing experience on the program application. Organizations may enter more than one team in each series.
Racing takes place in New York Harbor between Lower Manhattan and The Statue Of Liberty. Results of each days racing are compiled into standings and trophies are awarded at the end of each series. Teams must be at the dock by 6:00 p.m. to rig the boat and be out at the starting line by 6:15 p.m. After returning to the dock teams meet in the True North Sailing Clubhouse to watch videos of the days racing and relax with a beverage.
We provide each team with a completely outfitted J/24 sailboat. The J/24 is one of the most popular one-design keelboats in the world. It offers high performance and excellent stability in all conditions. The boats are equipped with main, jib, genoa, 6-hp outboard engine and all necessary safety gear.
Notes:
The entry fee for the corporate racing program is $3,800 per series. This includes boats, sails and trophies. Each team must also purchase a spinnaker inlaid with their corporate logo. Spinnakers range from $1,500 to $2,000 depending on the complexity of the logo.
