regattas each year as well as several offshore regattas. Yacht fleet racing has been a <strong>Half-Blue</strong> sport since 2008. The <strong>Varsity Match</strong> is raced every year over the Easter holiday in the Solent, with the full history of the cup results found <a href="http://www.ocss.org.uk/?page_id=2299">here</a>. The Blues Team also competes in <strong>BUSA Yachting Nationals</strong> every spring.</p><p><strong>Cruising</strong> trips are for members who want to enjoy sailing without the added competition. They are also organised throughout the year, with most trips taking place over Winter in order to keep costs low. We usually charter a yacht on the South Coast for a short weekend break, though occasionally venture out of the Solent for longer trips both within British waters and abroad. We can cater for both <strong>beginners </strong>and <strong>experienced sailors</strong>.</p><p>If you want to start yachting at the beginning of the academic year and meet lots of yachties - then join our annual <strong>Yachting Extravaganza</strong>. The <strong>Extravaganza</strong> is our <strong>biggest event</strong> of the year, generally taking place on the Saturday of 3rd week / Sunday of 4th week Michaelmas term, and is probably the best way to get to know people in the club, as well as a great chance to try yachting at Oxford!</p></div> 369 370 </div> 371 372 </div> 373 <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--oxfcms-heading paragraph--view-mode--default" 374 id="oxfcms-heading-2021" 375 data-name="oxfcms-heading-2021" 376 data-paragraph-id="2021" 377 > 378 <div class="oxfcms-heading"> 379 <h2> <span data-me-max_length="100">Inshore racing</span> 380</h2> 381 </div> 382 383 </div> 384 <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--text paragraph--view-mode--default" 385 data-name="oxfcms-text-2016" 386 data-paragraph-id="2016" 387 > 388 <div class="oxfcms-text"> 389 390 <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-wysiwyg-content field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><div class="align-center media media--type-image media--view-mode-original-size"> 391 392 393 <div class="field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image field--label-visually_hidden"> 394 <div class="field__label visually-hidden">Image</div> 395 <div class="field__item"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/g/files/vzsiac2416/files/ouyc/images/media/bateau8.jpg" width="3983" height="935" alt="Yachting"> 396 397</div> 398 </div> 399 400 </div> 401<p>Varsity and the student sailing Championships (BUSA) are the biggest events on the yachting calendar. For both, we race on Bénéteau Oceanis 38s out of Port Hamble. There is reasonably high standard at BUSA and the Tabs are often pretty good, which means it's very important that we take are training seriously as we only have limited time on the water. If you'd like to get involved, email <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>. </p><p><strong>Teams and Training</strong><br>Training will be running over the whole of a given weekend as we have to go down to the Solent to do so. The firsts team will be training for 3-4 weekends a term, whilst the seconds will only be training once or twice a term, which means that the commitment is lower. The seconds boat is perfect for developing our less experienced sailors, so please don't hesitate to get involved even if you haven't raced yachts before. It's possible that if you have been training on the seconds boat in Michaelmas that you'll be asked to train on the firsts in Hilary and beyond!</p><p><strong>Am I good enough?</strong><br>Yes. We often have at least one inexperienced sailor on the first team every year and the seconds boat is aimed at getting new and inexperienced sailors onto the water. Providing you are free for the weekend and eager to learn, we'll happily have you on board and will show you the ropes!</p></div> 402 403 </div> 404 405 </div> 406 <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--oxfcms-heading paragraph--view-mode--default" 407 id="oxfcms-heading-2031" 408 data-name="oxfcms-heading-2031" 409 data-paragraph-id="2031" 410 > 411 <div class="oxfcms-heading"> 412 <h2> <span data-me-max_length="100">Offshore Racing</span> 413</h2> 414 </div> 415 416 </div> 417 <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--text paragraph--view-mode--default" 418 data-name="oxfcms-text-2026" 419 data-paragraph-id="2026" 420 > 421 <div class="oxfcms-text"> 422 423 <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-wysiwyg-content field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><div class="align-center media media--type-image media--view-mode-original-size"> 424 425 426 <div class="field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image field--label-visually_hidden"> 427 <div class="field__label visually-hidden">Image</div> 428 <div class="field__item"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/g/files/vzsiac2416/files/ouyc/images/media/yacht-2017.jpg" width="1357" height="557" alt="Yachting"> 429 430</div> 431 </div> 432 433 </div> 434<p>During the summer months we often run an offshore campaign.
