For over 79 years the Mercury Class Yacht Racing Association (MCYRA) has been racing throughout California. For 2025 the class continues to thrive and grow with great racing throughout all of California. We have expanded the class archive section with some great historical docs and images with more to be added. And as always use the site learn about our history of competitive racing on the water and and family oriented activities off the water. In 2025 we continue to attract top sailors in the best California racing venues but we don't forget to have fun. With regattas hosted in the San Francisco bay area, Carmel, Monterey, Huntington Lake in the Sierras, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles and San Diego great competition is close by and always a challenge! Our active regatta schedule has events occurring every month of the year. Mercury sailboats are easy to store, trailer and launch. And you can get started on a budget with competitive used boats starting around $1000.

95th SCYA Midwinter Report
Cabrillo Beach Yacht Club - February 15-16
The 95th Midwinter Regatta had full cooperation from the weatherman. Storms moved through LA in time to deliver 2 almost perfect days of sailing in February. Both days saw light wind in the morning with 6mph by 1pm to start and 8-10mph by late afternoon, and beside that it was sunny. Racing was as usual close and with crowded mark rounding’s all day long, with some penalty turns from time to time.
