CYC Opti Team,

The spring season will kick off in a few weeks, and it is essential to be prepared with warm gear! Please read the cold weather sailing guide. Sailors are required to have dry suits for the spring. Practice and coaching details are list below. Championship Fleet should pack a lunch for full day weekend practices because lunch may be eaten on the water.  Green and Lime Fleet should eat a late breakfast before practice, and pack a snack/lunch to eat after or during practice. There are sailors with severe nut allergies, please do not bring any food with nut ingredients (peanut butter, almond butter, granola bars, etc.). Please let me know if you have any questions. 😊
