The inaugural 2026 AYC Club Championship is in the books! Congratulations to Team Sloppy Second helmed by Matt Schubert with crew Lori Schubert, Brad Julian and Sarah Holt for their 1st place win. 2nd Place finisher, Patrick Floyd's team Tides Motor Soldiers was tied with the event winner going in to the 5th and final race. In 3rd, Fletcher Sim's Are We Done Yet?

The fleet racing event in Club Sonars was the brain child of AYC's Adult Interclub Race Committee Chairs, Cole Allsopp and Sophie Podlich and the first running was an amazing success. Big shout out to PRO Kevin Reeds for kocking out 5 races in short order before sending everyone back to the dock for the awards ceremony.
