JSA Keelboat Fleet Racing Clinic

This clinic is the fastest way to get out on the water and racing in a grand prix format. With Oakcliff's fleet of 8 Match 40 race boats, teams of 5-6 will learn what it takes to race as a team on a 40ft racing boat. Partnered with the JSA of Long Island, Oakcliff will host, providing housing, food, coaching, and of course the racing boats. We will spend the first day working on boat handling and boat speed followed by a team BBQ. On day two we will incorporate and build on existing fleet racing knowledge and return to the water for a full day of racing. 

Attendees will be required to fill out the 2024 Enrollment Packet and upload it to their Oakcliff account or bring it in person to the event. 

Athletes can arrive by 0800 on Saturday or after 1700 on Friday, April 19, and stay in the Oakcliff Bunkhouse for free. Both nights are included in the admission.
