Grande Maumelle Sailing Club Underground


Welcome to the Underground!

The Underground is still going strong. Now that the official club site is useful and up to date, some of the things you've found here in the past are at the official site, where they belong. Now I can focus on the fun things and leave the work to others! Check out the photo gallery, it's growing rapidly.


You vs. Them updated for 2011-12

At least the A Fleet is almost current, except for Joe Hilliard's Beneteau. I'll include the B Fleet any day now... You vs. Them


Racing schedule right to your calendar – FIXED!

You can download the 2011-12 keelboat schedule right into your calendar (Outlook or other program). And yes, I think the dates are now correct, as of 1 December.


Latest photos in the gallery 

Photos from June 2011 racing are the most recent in the gallery.


Racing Rules of Sailing updated

The new RRS (2009-2012) is now available online (as a pdf). If you've never bothered to read the rules, go for that one, but the marked-up version is probably easier if you're already comfortable with the rules (as you should be – you know who you are). This one clearly shows all changes from the previous rules.


How to Score

Are you unsure how races are scored? Confused about how your boat's handicap actually affects your finish place? Trying to figure out why the Race Committee marks you down even when you finish first? Stop cursing the RC and check out How to Score for a better understanding of how the numbers work. 


Sharpen your racing skills

Practice these simple online exercises to hone your skills when you're not on the water. Currently includes exercises covering compass-heading calculations you use on standard race courses (Olympic and windward-leeward). Also includes headings on the opposite tack or gybe. You'll be amazed at how quickly your compass math improves with a bit of regular practice.


Lake Level

You can keep track of the lake level and other data for Lake Maumelle at Maumelle Guage.
