  • Team racing is prohibited at all events and may be protested and result in a penalty.

    * There must be at least 2 sailors in a fleet for that fleet's Qualifier to be scored in the Series.

    *A sailor's change of sail numbers from what appears on the event's registration form, without notifying the host club check-in staff and the Race Committee prior to the first race, will result in disqualification.

    *Laser sailors shall remain with the rig chosen in their first regatta.

    *The skipper in all events must stay the same. The crew may change.

    Optimist, Laser, and C420 sailors must have a score indicating that they started and attempted to finish at least one race in a Qualifier for that Qualifier's score to count in the Series. If a sailor's score for a Qualifier consists of all DNS or DNC scores, or a combination thereof, that regatta will NOT count in the Series.

  • *Optmist age rules apply with this exception: Sailors that begin the Series in a fleet shall remain in that fleet regardless of a mid-Series birthday.

    *Sailors for all classes may not turn 19 years of age in the year of the event.

  • Qualifiers: The final standings of each Qualifier will be calculated using the Low-Point Scoring System Appendix A of the racing rules. There will be ONE throw out if 5 or more have been raced and scored.

    Series: Qualifier results will be combined using the Low-Point Scoring System Appendix A of the Racing Rules to calculate the final Series standings. The number of Qualifier results combined will be one less than the total number of Qualifiers completed in each fleet. If a sailor completes all Qualifiers for their fleet, their worst score will be discarded. (Qualifiers that were cancelled without postponement will not be included.)

  • The top sailors in each fleet will be recognized and presented with the PGJSA Summer Series 2024 trophies.
