The MRYC sailing program has blossomed into one of the best around. Metedeconk offers several different classes, including Optimist (Beginner to Racing Team), Feva, Laser Radial and Laser 4.7 and Club 420. Metedeconk is also home to the famed Junior Powder Puff Regatta. This ‘girls-only’ event is held annually in July, attracting over 250 sailors from along the Atlantic Coast. This regatta has been featured in Sailing Magazine and recently celebrated its 30th anniversary.
MRYC also holds a weekly Advanced Sailing Class for junior sailors between the ages of 14 and 17. These sailors are coached in Lightnings at a more rigorous level in hopes of promoting the Lightning class to junior sailors.
