Wed Night Series — Jib and Main Overall Winner / Bibs Francis Trophy

WEDNESDAY NIGHT SERIES
• BIBS FRANCIS TROPHY •

First Overall — Jib & Main Division
8th Consecutive Awarding — 2012

This trophy was donated to LCYC by the late Bibs Francis, a long-time member and for many years the owner of Chiott Marine in Burlington. At the time the Jib & Main division was growing, but there were few awards for that group. In 2005 the Board designated that this traveling trophy would recognize the Jib & Main boat that finished the season first overall in its division in the Wednesday Night Series races.

    LCYC is a member-run yacht club located in a sheltered cove on the southwest shore of Shelburne Bay in Shelburne, Vermont, USA. We offer moorings, activities, and community for our members, most of whom own a sailboat or powerboat. The object of the Club is to promote and encourage boating and sailing on Lake Champlain, while emphasizing racing, cruising, and education, without financial gain.

    Cruising
    Cruising

    Lake Champlain offers some of the best freshwater cruising in North America. The beautiful scenery and charming lakeside destinations make it a great place to explore. LCYC organizes several rendezvous events. Spontaneous cruising events also materialize throughout the season. We have a number of scheduled events planned for the summer season. Cruisers are out and about just about every weekday and weekend throughout the summer.
