Mackinac Island Yacht Club, RCING IN 2022
Dear Sailors and Friends:
Mark your calendars for another great season of Island racing in 2022. We are looking forward to getting back on the Straits of Mackinac for some friendly and fun competition. Whether you are a skipper, crew, supporter, or simply joining in on the festivities, we welcome you to participate.
Mackinac Island Yacht Club, along with our sponsors...…..The Pink Pony, Mission Point Resort and Horns Bar, will be rolling out four great sailing events. The race dates for 2022 are:
July 3, 2022 - Pink Pony 4th of July Race

Skippers and boats can register online on the Mackinac Island Yacht Club web site or on race day at Mackinac Island Yacht Club. (www.miyachtclub.com)
Additional information with race updates and race results are also posted on the Mackinac Island Yacht Club web site throughout the racing season.
We truly experienced another great sailing season in 2021. The final results for our 2021 Mackinac Island Race season are attached.
The Lake Huron PHRF organization has requested all skippers to complete a new application this year for their 2022 PHRF certificate by April 1, 2022...........even if there is an existing Lake Huron PHRF certificate. What this means is that everyone needs to complete the application for the 2022 racing season.
The online application is available on the Lake Huron PHRF website at www.lhphrf.com. It takes a few moments to complete and is free. Your rating will be added to the 2022 valid Lake Huron PHRF list. This is all you will need to do to have a valid rating for Mackinac Island Yacht Club racing.

Come out and join us for another great sailing season!
