Several races each season, by and around San Juan Island.
2026 race series
Six races, three hosted here
We hold several races each season, by and around San Juan Island. We encourage you to participate and to help out in organizing races. We also compete in races held by other clubs in this area, notably events held by San Juan Island Yacht Club, Lopez Island Yacht Club, and Orcas Island Yacht Club.
The 2026 series includes three races hosted by FHSC, plus a race hosted by each of those neighboring clubs. All yachts must be registered in order to be scored. Unregistered yachts may race, but will not be scored. On-course registration with the Race Committee is permitted.
Communications are on VHF channel 72. All boats are required to carry valid third-party liability insurance with a minimum of $300,000 per event or the equivalent.
