Welcome to MORF
Due to forecast tomorrow and proximity to the Mac, the Lady Skipper Race schedule for Sunday, 6/30, is abandoned. We never like to call a race from land let alone the day before the race but wanted to let everyone know before you make the trek to the harbors. We do not anticipate much improvement in the forecast.
The MORF Open, sponsored by Noon Whistle, will be held on Saturday September 16 2023 at Starting Area 7 at 11am. Everyone in the community is invited.
If you are not a MORF member sign-up at Race Sign Up . Communication will be via the MORF notice board. The NOR and SSIs are available.

Sunday, 7/9, is the 4th Lady Skipper’s race. This race will be In partnership with COLYC as part of their Halyard Hustle race. They will be providing a start for Morf Lady Skipper racers. That start will include both the JAM and Spin boats. No entry fee will be required. Morf Lady Skipper racers should register for the race at https://yachtscoring.com/emenu.cfm?eID=15836. They should select “MORF Lady Skipper” as the section; disregard the payment process, and just go back to “Home”. Our JAM and Spin boats start together in Section 8.
DOWNLOAD AND READ the Si’s for this race from the yachtscoring website. Print it off and take a copy with you to the boat. There are lots of marks and lots of courses with different sections having different courses. Don’t get lost or confused. I can’t begin to calculated who will cross whom, and at what angles, on the course – keep you eyes open. Anyone who has ever done the St Joseph River Yacht Clubs’ Rhumbline regatta will find this race familiar. It should be an experience.
Fly a section “8” flag if you have one. As usual, provided I have your finish time, which will be on the yachtscoring page if you sign-up, I will rescore this race with Morf scoring (TOD) and Morf ratings on the Morf website as part of the Lady Skipper’s series. This is a Columbia race. They will hear any protests.
