Come be a part of Friday Night Team Racing in Santa Barbara where college and post-college sailors will participate in a ‘pick-up’ style of team racing in CFJ’s. The first Friday of the month is scheduled as a scored event where teams can compete for bragging rights. The other Fridays will be very informal allowing sailors to switch between boats and teams with no scores being kept. Experienced sailors are encouraged to invite friends to spectate and join for the post-race party.
