Membership FAQ

How do I register? Or sign up for a single race?

Joining the SSS for a season, or registering for a single race as a guest, are both accomplished via the Jibeset website.

What if I'm not able to pay online?

While all payment of fees, membership, and race registration takes place online, we understand this may not work for some folks. If you cannot pay on line, you may mail a check to the address found in the footer of this site

Should I join SSS or just enter individual races?

Apart from the fact that SSS members are really cool, you should become a member if you think you may do three or more of our races this year. Members get to enter the races (except the LongPac or TransPac) for free, so after your third race you’re saving money by being a member.  And you avoid the repetitive payments.

If you’re not sure about your racing schedule, enter a race or two.  If you decide to become a member after that, we’ll credit those entry fees toward your membership.

If I become a member, does that mean I’m signed up for all the races?

No, you need to go through the online entry process for each race (just once for Vallejo 1-2 weekend). Generally, you can’t enter a given race until after the previous race.

We want to be sure that your emergency contact info is current, and that you’ve had a chance to see any amendments to the sailing instructions.

Are there other single and doublehanded races in the SF Bay Areas?

In addition to the SSS’s races, the Offshore Yacht Racing Association (OYRA) section of the Yacht Racing Association of San Francisco Bay (YRA) provides a division for singlehanded or doublehanded sailors in approximately 10 races per year. Participation in these races requires a separate application to YRA.  Contact the YRA at www.yra.org.

What trophies are awarded?

Perpetual trophies are awarded to the Singlehanded and Doublehanded Season Champions.

Can I join if I don't have my own boat?

Yes!

If you do not have a boat, enter your last name as the boat name and your ZIP code as your sail number.
