Friday Night Racing (FNR) is organized and operated by the four community sailing Clubs -- Mooredale, St. James Town, Toronto Island and Westwood -- together with the Outer Harbour Centreboard Club (“OHCC”).
To ensure that everyone is given a chance to race, skippers are matched with crew by a random draw. The FNR races start at 6:45pm or 7:00pm. Take the 5:00pm tender to get to the race course on time!
To register for the Friday Night Races you must have your Helms status. Registering as a skipper requires Racing Skipper status.
To register see the Racing Section of the website or the TISC Handbook.
Sign up deadline is Wednesday at 8PM.

Through their assistance with the CANSail classes and general mentoring as part of social sailing nights, TISC skippers put in a lot of work and time into making sure novices have a great learning experience! This year, we're combining the traditional 'thank you' brunch with helms bridging.
Please plan to be on the 11:00 AM tender. Interested in contributing to the brunch? Please fill out the Google sheet! You can also contact Kevin Carlton, Social Director at social@torontosailing.com to help plan the event.
After we've fed the skippers, we'll put them to work yet again by asking them to test this year's crop of helms candidates. We'll focus on the three on-water skills that are not covered by CANSail (heave-to, man-overboard, and close quarter sailing), and will try and sign you off on additional items if time allows.
If you're a novice who'd like to be tested, please make sure you meet the following prerequisites:
Have any questions about helms bridging? Contact Jiwon Bang, Education Director at education@torontosailing.com.
We look forward to seeing you!
Open to members who have completed CANSail 1/2. This intermediate sailing course teaches sailors to integrate the fundamental boat handling maneuvers and balance with basic tactics and strategy as well as applied sail trim. Sailors are exposed to a greater variety of conditions. Succeeding at CANSail 3 will prime you to become a Senior Helm at the club. CANSail 4 is your best prep for becoming a Skipper.
We limit the course to 10 students for only $175.00 + HST.
Start time indicates the marina tender departure time students must take to the island. CANSail 3/4 is a rigorous course so please come on time and prepared to go out on the water quickly.
Please note that all sales are final for courses.
Dates are subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances, such as inclement weather. Whenever possible in these cases, on-land instruction will be substituted.
Join us for an evening of Whisk(e)y Tasting & Live Music! As the sailing season winds down and the air turns cool, let the whiskey (and the fire pit) keep you warm as you're serenaded by the sounds of TISC's very own "Whiskey Quintet."
Enjoy the unique arrangements of Music Director Raffi Alutonian (guitar), along with fellow members Jiwon Bang (cello), Riaz Hassan (cello), Alice Chow (violin) and Rachelle Young-Lai (violin).
We're gathering an eclectic mix of whiskies to enjoy while you take in the show. Bring a bottle of your favourite, or take the opportunity to buy something new. Please also bring along a few potluck snacks or dinner dishes. Add in your contribution in the google spreadsheet.
Cost: If you're not sure what to get, please make a $15 contribution to bolster supplies.
