July 20, 2024 Five Islands Ice Cream Race for Turnabouts
Second Annual Race
I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream For Ice Cream! For at least 100 years one of the classic SYC afternoon turnabout sails has been to cross the Sheepscot to Five Islands, buy some ice cream, and then return. It’s a “Race/Sail” because not only are racers welcome, but those who just want to participate in a supervised turnabout sail to Five Islands are also welcome. Don’t worry about the wind disappearing and leaving you stranded on the other side of the Sheepscot because we will have SYC patrol boats on hand to tow you back to Cozy Harbor if the wind should disappear (or become too strong). Two special rules for this event: 1) Each boat must have two people on board. The reason for this is that frequently the Five Island docks get crowded. So for this event, when turnabouts get to Five Islands they will drop off one person to be the ice cream buyer while the other person sails around in the harbor waiting for the ice cream buyer to return to the dock. Boats picking up a returning ice cream buyer will have priority over boats dropping off an ice cream buyer. 2) No running on the Five Islands docks. Participants are responsible for paying for their own ice cream. Current ice cream prices run from $3 for a small cone/cup to $7 for a pint. The official starting time and location is 1:00 at the Cedarbush red nun outside Cozy Harbor. If you don’t have your own turnabout and wish to participate, please talk to Shannon Killian to borrow a boat.
