Saturday is an open day, but Sunday September 4th is the traditional Bloomer Cup sail boat race and pig roast. This year’s race is a “pursuit race” meaning that the slower boats start first, followed by the faster boats. This alleviates all the confusion and intimidation at the start line. Perfect for beginners! Skippers meeting is at 11 a.m. and the race starts at 1 p.m. The course will be determined at this time as well. The deadline for applications is at 11 a.m. Sunday.
Go to www.ludingtonyachtclub.org to download the race application. You will also need to submit your PERF rating.
