Discounts:

The discounts available depend on the fleet as marked in the table above. These discounts only apply as given below and do not apply to the Other Fees listed at the bottom of this page.

WBYC Sailing School Discount: Students under age 19 who have paid or will be paying for WBYC Sailing School Racing Lessons (and have not cancelled) do not have to pay the Hull&skipper and crew fees in order to race in Sailing Division races. Note that submitting a Sailing Division registration form is still required.
Youth Discount: Boats owned by the skipper or his/her parents whose skipper is under age 25 receive a 50% discount on the Hull&skipper fees. Additionally, in a boat with a youth skipper, crews under age 25 receive a 50% discount off the crew fee.
New Sailor Discount: Skippers 25 years of age or older who have never registered a boat at WBYC and are registering a boat they own for the first time at WBYC receive a 50% discount on the Hull&skipper fee. Crews of new skippers who also have never previously registered to race at WBYC also receive a 50% discount on the crew fee. Past participation in WBYC races by virtue of being enrolled in the WBYC Sailing School racing lessons is not considered being registered for the purposes of this discount.

Exceptions to these fees:

WBYC members may register and race any or all of the sailboats they own with the WBYC Sailing Division without paying skipper or hull fees. Crew fees and applicable lift, and photo fees must be paid.
The E scow owned by the Sailing School can be registered to race for $150 (total including crew) provided that that crew are sailing school staff.
