Grandview Yacht Club: July 2026

ALL ARE WELCOME!

Any Grandview lot owner or family member can sail or volunteer with us immediately. If you don't already sail, you can crew for our skippers and learn about sailing and racing. If you have a sailboat, just show up at the starting line 15 minutes prior to the 2:00pm starting horn and check in with the "committee boat".
We also need "Committee Boat" volunteers. The Committee Boat is the pontoon boat used for starting and timing the races. Those on board share the tasks involved, and enjoy the very best place to observe the dramas that occur during a typical race. The Committee Boat is the best place on the lake on Sunday afternoons.

We will guide you along. If interested please contact the Commodore, Tom Schroeder at 317-873-1637 (leave message).

Ode to the Race of June 25th 2017

Epic 6/25/17 Race: Only One Leg Remains on the Boat!

Which boat is ahead?

John Auld and Paul Hass in the yellow Y-Flyer shown here upwind and in a more advantageous position than Matt Bartlett and Tom Schroeder in the JY-15 to the right (Matt & Tom will have to tack to make it to the mark). Tom turned the helm of his JY-15 over to his more experienced crew on several occaisions which resulted in him accumulating lots of points in our scoring system. The system is designed such that there is no penalty to a captain for encouraging their crew to take the helm and gain some racing experience.
