CCYC is made up of about ten to fifteen active members of the Colby student body. We are completely student run, with a small amount of funding from the school.
Our practices are held at the Hume Center. The practice schedule for the Spring 2007 season hasn't be set, but will most likely be two to three times a week.
We compete almost every weekend during the season, from the beginning of school until Thanksgiving and then from Spring Break until the end of school.
Many of our sailors have competed in college but were not looking for a full-fledged varsity program. The vast majority of our sailors have had fairly significant racing experience. Sailing at Colby is for students who do not want to leave sailing behind them after High School, but at the same time do not want sailing to dominate their college life.
FJs! They're great boats, similar to 420's. We also have a hard-bottom inflatable to run chase.
