THE RACE

This is a mid-distance race with multiple course options that include some or all of the following: start/finish at Apple Cove Point at Kingston, the Foulweather Bluff buoy, the Scatchet Head buoy on the south end of Whidbey Island, and a temporary mark at Pilot Point.

The first division starts at 10:00 AM with a reverse starting sequence and multi-hulls in the last start. Yachts are divided into "long" and "short" course boats based on whether their PHRF-NW rating is 179 or lower, or 180 or above, respectively. Scoring is Time on Time. You must have a current PHRF-NW membership or an ORC certificate to be scored in this race.

FOULWEATHER BLUFF RACE IS A PUGET SOUND TOP 25 QUALIFYING RACE.

Prizes include 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd place in each division, the perpetual Bill Heston Performance trophy awarded to the first place overall monohull winner on the long course, and the Grand Perpetual Foulweather Bluff Race team trophy is awarded to the yacht club with the best four boats combined finishes.
