Sailors from Oriental head out on the Neuse for the Wednesday Night Sail Race. Boats rendezvous at Oriental Marker #1 on each Wednesday for a relatively carefree race around the government marks. Just show up. It’s always a bad sign when sailboats are closer than 6 ft, so your social distancing is covered.

New Earlier Time – the race starts at 1700 GPS time . There is a warning horn at 1655 (usually) and again at the start. Which ever is more upwind, Garbacon or Adam’s Creek, is the weather mark, round the other as the leeward mark and finish at Oriental 1. VHF Channel 78 for communications. Questions?
