Welcome to the Oxford Amateur Racing Series (OARS)
The Oxford Amateur Racing Series was founded on the concept of fun, and is open to all skippers sailing boats with a minimum overall length of 18 feet.
The fleets are scored in two divisions: spinnaker and non-spinnaker. Races are held off the Tred Avon Yacht Club on Friday evenings, with a start time of 6:00 PM, earlier as the days get shorter in September -- see Race Instructions. There is no format for filing protests in OARS competition. Participants are expected to know the racing rules and abide by them.
Registration, a PHRF rating and sail #'s are required for participation. Annual dues are $50 per boat. A Registration Form is provided on this web site.
The racing season is celebrated with an annual awards dinner in which "Great Oars" are presented to the winners of each division.
