Good morning, racers! If you haven’t checked yet, results from last night’s racing are now available! Our Race Committee has been focused on getting results out as quickly as possible, and in most cases this season, results have been posted within 45 minutes of the race’s conclusion. We’re also told that by next racing season, GybeHub will have a phone app that can notify racers immediately when results are posted, which will help us take that effort one step further. And, to our surprise, drone photographer Mike Florian was back out at the dock again last night! As always, he captured lots of amazing photos from the evening’s racing. You can check them out here: https://snapped4u.com/galleries/23545

Good morning, racers! Photographer Mike Florian loves capturing a good downwind start, and we’re grateful that he comes out on his own accord to take some of these amazing photos. If you raced last night, there’s a pretty good chance he got a great shot of you and your crew! We also want to remind everyone that our own in-house photographer and videographer, Jenny, usually has some great footage of the starts to share afterward at Marge’s Bar on Mack Ave. Marge’s has always shown our sailing community tremendous hospitality, so we hope you’ll join the unofficial post-race gathering there after the races. Come by after the races, grab a drink, and spend a little time with the people you were just racing against on the water. Mike's drone photos are available here: https://snapped4u.com/galleries/23523 See you next week!

Greetings, racers! It was a slow, slow race yesterday. We thank everyone for coming out and offer our congratulations to the few who managed to finish! As a reminder, we ask boats to hail the race committee when retiring from the race. This makes things much easier for our scorers. Lastly, Mike Florian, the local drone photographer, was out again and captured some really nice photos. Take a look at the link below. https://snapped4u.com/galleries/23514 See you next week!

Dear Racers, Amendment #1 to the Sailing Instructions has been withdrawn. The Sailing Instructions therefore revert to their originally posted form. As a result, the previously added Multihull Class in Start #5 has been removed and will no longer be part of the starting sequence. Please refer to the current Sailing Instructions on the GybeHub event page for the official starting sequence and race information. As a reminder, we invite all racers to the race party at Windmill Pointe Marina immediately after the race.

Welcome back, racers! We're excited to kick off the Summer Series tomorrow. We wanted to let you know there was a small amendment to the Sailing Instructions, which are now available for download. The only change is Section 4.2: Sequence, which has been amended to state JAM & MULTI-HULL for Start #5. Also, we invite all racers to the race party at Windmill Pointe Marina immediately after the race. See you tomorrow!

If you didn't see them last night, race #7 results and updated Spring Series standings are now available. We're also happy to report that Mike Florian was once again at the dock to capture some amazing drone photos of the spinnaker start! If you raced last night, there's a good chance your boat is represented in these photos. https://snapped4u.com/galleries/23448 Thank you to our amazing competitors, volunteers, and race committee who continue to make this series one of the best weeknight traditions in Detroit sailing. There is still plenty of time to join us for the Summer Series. Your Summer Series registration also includes complimentary entry to the Peche Island–Detroit River Classic on August 4. We’ll see you on the water!

Race #6 results and up-to-date series standings are now available on the official Sundown Series GybeHub page. As a reminder, series standings update in real time as new races are scored, so there is no need to wonder where you stand over the course of the series. Finally, a big thank you to photographer Mike Florian, who was dockside with his drone capturing many beautiful photos of the light-air race. Next week is Race #7! https://snapped4u.com/FlorianSailboats/2026%20GPSC

Despite the gusty conditions, local photographer Mike Florian was able to get photos of yesterday's start. You can view the photos at the following link: https://snapped4u.com/galleries/23439

The 6/9 race was abandoned for all classes due to a lack of wind.

Local photographer Michael Florian was at last night's Sundown Series Race and has made photos available at the link below. Most boats from last night's race were captured by the photographer. https://snapped4u.com/galleries/23432

Welcome back, racers! Tonight is Spring Race #1 for the 2026 Sundown Series. As a reminder, there will be an after-race party on the Tompkins Center patio following the race. Also, courtesy broadcasts of race cancellations and other notices (such as this) will be posted in the "bulletins" section of the event's GybeHub page, as well as copied to subscribed registrants.

The 2026 Sundown Series Sailing Instructions, including class splits and starting sequence, are now available for download on the Sundown Series GybeHub event page.

Dear Competitors, We are now less than two weeks away from our first race, and registrations are continuing to come in daily. At this time, there are still several boats that do not yet have a current Midwest PHRF certificate on file in the MWPHRF database. If you have not already done so, please visit Midwest PHRF to obtain or renew your certificate as soon as possible. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing everyone on the water soon. Thanks, Race Committee

Dear skippers, the race committee is only overriding your submitted ratings based on your current MWPHRF certificate. As a reminder, we use DHCP for the PHRF and cruising classes, and DNSHCP for JAM. Per MWPHRF, ratings designated with the prefix "D" are recommended for distance or point-to-point races, regardless of length. https://www.mwphrf.org/index.php/information/understanding-your-handicap

Greetings, racers! The 2026 Notice of Race and Course documents have now been posted. Please stay tuned for the Sailing Instructions.
