District: 

Beaufort Yacht & Sailing Club (BYSC), invites the Flying Scots to our Lowcountry Regatta, June 24-25, 2023.   We do not have a fleet but,we have chosen the Flying Scot as a club boat for training and racing.  We now we have ONE and would like to build on that - having the Flying Scots join our regatta would really help us show what a great boat it is!

This is a fun regatta and, we think, good race committee work. Some details about the regatta:
