The Racing Rules of Sailing are the foundation for running a race or regatta or participating. The Racing Rules used in OYC Racing describes the hierarchy of rules that apply to a sailing event: World Sailing Rules, US Sailing (national) Rules, One-Design Organization Class Rules, and finally any changes to rules specified in an event's Sailing Instructions. The Notice of Race (NOR) and Sailing Instructions are formal documents defined by the Racing Rules.

The Notice of Race (NOR) and Sailing Instructions (SI) page provides NOR, SI, and regatta entry forms for OYC adult regattas.

The Quick References provides one page reference sheets summarizing the five minute start sequence, the flags used, and the course diagrams that appear in 2024 Sailing Instructions - Appendix A: The Courses .

The Forms page has links to the OYC Racing Associate Application, OYC Trailer Registration Application, and the long and short Race Results Form used in scoring.
