MC Sail Team should pick/choose which regattas to participate in up front. Pricing for Sail Team membership will depend on how many boats are used (most likely 2 for MC sail team), how many days of practice per week (2 or 3?) and number of “coached” regattas. The team is allowed to participate in regattas without coaches, with SFYC boats/equipment. SFYC coaches usually do not coach at NorCal regattas and are considering not coaching at PCISA #2 and #3, Anteater and Rosebowl, typically very light wind regattas. This is all negotiable.
